@Eunice Villarroel, I see that you’re in Miami as well. Reach out to @Josh Green, he is a true expert in the areas that you have mentioned and I have closed multiple deals with him. He may not get back to you today because it’s his birthday, but he’s definitely the one person you need to connect with!

@Mike Wilcher Jr, depending on your qualifications, a conventional loan may be a better option for you! I am happy to go over your loan profile and help you strategize the best option for your current situation. Also, if you're looking for an expert realtor in the area, @Josh Green is the person to reach out to! He has helped several of our clients successfully source, purchase and manage their short term rentals in the bay area! I hope this recommendation helps.

Hi @Erik Cardero, you can probably get a rate in the high 6s low 7s depending on what your loan to value is. I'd be happy to go over any scenarios with you. Feel free to reach out directly.
