Seasoning for Refinancing to Owner Occupied
Background: I'm financing my first deal (first home in general) and rehabing with a HML. The hard money will finance 75% of ARV with a 6 month term. The idea is to either make it a rental property and cashout/heloc to buy an owner occupied second property or refinance into an owner occupied conventional loan and buy a second property as a rental. In other words, I'll live in the first property or the second. I WILL NOT LIVE IN IT UNTIL ITS BEEN REFINANCED.
Is there a seasoning period to refinance out of hard money to a conventional owner occupied loan? If that's the case, do I need to renegotiate a longer term? I understand it's usually 6-12mo for NOO refinancing.
I'm trying to understand my "exit" strategy options in case my wife gets tired of me.
