Hi Everyone, I am new to the RE game but have been listening to the BiggerPockets content for some time now.

We have a good relationship with the tenants and are trying to get them rental assistance money through the state, which has been a never ending waiting game since early September when we put the application in. 

They’re putting in 10-20x the work and reaping 2-3x the profits but need less capital to get in the game. 

Right now the house would not pass code in many respects, so it's nearly certain that some repairs would be deemed reasonable and reimbursable if the previous owner exercised his right of redemption.With that said, BRRRR is still on the table!

Hey everybody, I am brand new to the game and keep getting torn on which direction I should go.

We are still very new to the game, what are the things to look out for when structuring the loan?

.:)  The real answer is to prevent churning or constant refinances in an appreciating market because the secondary mortgage market is built on mortgage backed securities and lenders would have to pay their yield spread back to the investors if the loans kept coming out of the security.You can go with a DSCR loan that doesn't require 6 months seasoning, but the terms are not as favorable as they would be if you waited and since you're playing the long game with the property, it's best that you wait.80% is available, but again, the terms are not nearly as favorable as they would be at even 75%. 

If you have another strong buy on the table and need the cash, the argument tends towards cash out refinance.One caveat - in my experience, appraisals for cash out refi often come in low.I believe you can start the process and adjust your loan decisions once appraisal comes in.

Just listened to the latest BP podcast and it convicted me that I’m not surrounding myself with others in the game.
