I am utilizing My W2 job to secure my first 203k loan on a duplex in my area "Columbus OH".

Because I am a teacher and don't get paid over the summer, I would need to identify the replacement property while the relinquish property is in the process of closing, rather than waiting until after it closes, so that I can continue to provide proof of income to the loan officer to secure a mortgage on the replacement property.

I would build on your specific skill-set before I ran out and started slanging solar and security systems.

Goals and story: My friend is a foreign national, immigration status has been approved but still waiting on green card, has social security and runs a lucrative business that mostly deals in cash.

Do you have proper security deposits?

.- Purchasing security like ADT and or getting smart locks? 

When you know you want to secure a hard money loan (and then refinance later) do you reach out to these lenders ahead of time or after you have a deal in contract?
