Those criteria are then messaged in your advertising and reiterated in pre-screening phone call with each potential tenant.

She completed the pre-approval process but they will only grant her a loan for 250K or so and she has to put down the entire down payment (about 100K saved).

I've read mixed/conflicting advice on here about whether it's more beneficial to buy each one via LLC or would buying under my own name and supplementing that with a hefty umbrella insurance policy?

Some property managers I work with, I refer them there for free, and if they don't work out there I just send them to apartments.com.

I have seen restaurant spaces sit vacant for years, even in pre-pandemic, everyone dining out days.  

@Horace Grant With regards to buyers I would recommend you partner with a good lender to refer prospective clients to if they can't readily provide you with a proof of funds or pre-approval letter.

If FHA is something you want to do, and you have done the research behind it, you can start to work with a lender and figure out what you would be pre-qualified to spend.

OK quick advice so I'm refinancing my duplex I've only owned it for almost one year, The real estate market is hot out here in North Idaho the home gotta appraised for 100 K more than purchase price They only give you 80% of the appraised value with a cash out refi , I was hoping for more but they're only willing to give me 17k at the closing table, It will raise my mortgage $200 monthly from 1880 to 2080 Since I'm house hacking The $1400 for rent on the other side supplements my income Which leaves me not having to pay too much to cover the paymentI've been going back-and-forth, but I really need to pay off $17000 of credit card debt It will raise my credit score significantly at least and then I'm thinking 6 more months down the road I can move it to a conventional loan or take a take advantage of FHA Program that lowers my interest rate if I have a good credit score to lower my payment right back downMy credit card bills amounts to 490 monthly( This is just the minimum payments) If I do Go through and take this to the closing table I will be saving $300 a month instantly By having to not send out 490 monthly in cc bills although my mortgage will go up $200 should I go through with it or try to plug away at the cc debt for the next year !?

To supplement my W-2 income and ultimately carve a path to financial freedom.

I was pre-approved for 800K-1M with FHA and actually have found an agent via this forum.
