FHA/traditional loans are limited to no more than 4 individual loans per person (you can't buy in the LLC name) and no more than four units (doors) per loan.  

Does anyone know of any private investors that offer decent rates with less $ down in NC then traditional lenders?

However, once I move out will I have to refi into a traditional mortgage since it will not be my primary? 

We have a meeting coming up Thursday, July 7, 7-8pm at 205 W Boutz Rd Building 2 in Las Cruces.Our guest speaker this month is Henry Apodaca with First American Bank and he's going to teach about the underwriting process and about investor relationships with traditional lenders (as per the request of group members).

I was told by two traditional lenders that "I" could not get a mortgage for much less than 100k (with some other caveats) , the property I am considering would likely go to market at slightly less than that 100k. 

Additionally if you read in the Carrier HVAC warranty it talks about systems being installed in rental properties and the warranty Not being transferable.If you are a professional landlord, then you are performing the regular recommended HVAC and Heat system maintenance items. 

Maybe ask an employee which one would fit that for you and move on to the next item.

Split the costs.These are all capital expenses, but I'd probably go the same route with maintenance items (like power washing) if it's really not yet needed in my opinion.

What items or hacks do you like that reduce costs and force appreciation?
