We are hoping to use some of the flip profit for a rental in the next few years as well.1.

It also depends on how bad their credit is and WHY.Verified income, job stability, rental history....WAY WAY more important than credit score alone. 

There's been a lot of doom and gloom about short term rentals and the Smokies but I believe in that market long term. 

@Kristen L GarnerWould it be possible to get a personal loan to purchase a short term rental?

When I started managing single-family rental homes back in 2009 in Augusta, GA, there was less variance in the industry (and also less services available).

The listing says the property was sold Oct 2018 for $28,000 and now is Pending in March 2019 for $116,000Is it that the market really isn't a rental market, it's a Fix & Flip market?

I have a choice to make on which lender to go with on my rental property refinance, however as I research each lender, I cannot find adequate information about their actual business practices.

I have used BiggerPockets a lot throughout my journey from the rental calculators to getting lenders for my first BRRRR property, so I figured this would be a good place to start my search! 

During the term period, do i take over mortgage payments and pay the seller a rental fee/rental premium from the cash flow?

., the interest rates are too high and that seems a last resort.I would like to find a partner to buy half the house/blue sky and run the rental business with me (spouse will be removed and sign off), either as an active or silent partner, I’m flexible on how involved someone wants to be.
