Hey Seth, welcome to BP! 

Have you looked into DSCR loans? They are underwritten primarily based off of the property not the borrowe so your W2 nor DTI is relevant.

Also, I do love a nice pen...happy to connect with you!

Hey Raj – Some lenders may offer options for seasoning periods under six months. However, it's important to keep in mind that shorter seasoning periods often come with different terms compared to a a cash out refi with 6 months + of seasoning. Happy to connect with you.

Hey Denny - 

For rehab costs, a good place to start is breaking things down room by room and getting rough estimates for common repairs like the roof, HVAC, kitchen, light cosmetics, etc. Connecting with local contractors or experienced investors in your area is also very helpful for getting accurate numbers.

For ARV you'll want to look at comps; You can start on Zillow or Realtor.com but I highly suggest connecting with a local agent. Where are you looking to invest?

Welcome Godsheritage!

Are you working with an agent on this one? Also, what strategy are you implementing (flip, BRRRR, etc)?
