Quitting the 9-5

Dan Kim
Posted

Hello BP community! For a few years, I’ve been mulling over moving on from my 9-5 and getting into real estate full time. When it comes to loans, as lenders look for steady income to make their decision to lend, how do full time investors (beginners) go about financing? Are there different loan options for them?


So far in my research, I’ve looked at seller financing and partnering as options, but wondering if getting a loan (traditional or otherwise), is possible without that 9-5 income. Thank you!
