Say what you want about that but I'd be looking out for myself and if the person doing the reference checks isn't smart enough to go back further... that's on them. in markets for rental areas that have high proportion of tenants  like the mid west were something like 50 to 60% of all folks rent.. your telling the truth flat guarantee most landlords with a bummer tenant is going to say anything they can to get them to move on.in nicer areas of A class 700 fico tenants this is not really as big of an issue

Below are some general notes on DSCR loans:* usually used for single family or 2-8 multi family unit properties (fits your scenario)* must be for investment, non owner occupied (if looking for a product for alternative qualifying solutions for owner occupied there are other products)* can close in a personal name or LLC* usually 80% LTV for a purchase (20% down payment) & usually 75-80% LTV for cash out refis* prepayment penalties vary and are optional, but the higher the prepayment penalty, the lower the rate / options typical range from no prepay all the way up to 5 year prepay and structures vary for how those penalties work (3 year is my most popular by far)* appraisal most likely required and paid out of pocket during transaction* can be used for long term, mid term, or short term rental properties * generally 1%+ is the desired DSCR ratio but you get better rates if the ratio is higher (usually rate breaks kick in at 1.15%+ or 1.25%+) and you can still get the loan done if ratio is lower than 1% but the rate will reflect that (DM me if you wand help learning how to calculate the ratio)* the average time to close is 21-30 days* fees vary lender to lender and product to product, but $1595 underwriting plus title fees is pretty standard* 700+ credit is preferred to get max LTV, but plenty of options if credit falls below that* a typical loan minimum is $75k (have limited options for $50k+) and typical loan maximum is $3-4m (have limited options for $4m+)* 3 months reserves usually required, having 6+ months will usually result in better loan terms, 0 reserves can still get the job done if you go with a program that allows you to use the cash flow as reserves* 30 year fixed, IO, and ARMS available

Good Afternoon,I have a business idea I need help building.Currently, on a PowerPoint, my understanding is that NDA is appropriate before sharing one's idea.One part of the mid-term rental market, side down the road option, adds a concept to the male dating market.How does one find someone to legitimately review the business plans?
