I would try to do the seller financing if possible and make them feel more comfortable by offering more of a down payment, getting a cosigner, go through an underwriting process with a lender, etc.

Please feel free to reach out to me directly as well, I am more than eager to hop on calls with investors to get a feel for the area.

Any advice that you might feel is beneficial to women investors?

Feel free to DM me if you have any follow-up questions about house hacking or anything else real estate investing.

Feel free to inbox me if you want to discuss further.
