Welcome, Jimmy!

Are you currently in the STR or LTR space / are you looking to expand into one or the other as you grow your portfolio?

Hey Thomas,

BRRRR is still a strong strategy, especially with solid capital. If scaling quickly is your goal, DSCR loans are a great tool for the refi portion since there's no 12 month seasoning requirement like conventional loans, and DTI isn't a factor.

I suggest focusing on building your "Core 4" team—agent, lender (one who can finance both the purchase/rehab and refinance is ideal), contractor, and property manager. Happy to connect if you want to dive deeper!

Hi Ritu - 

Look into meetups in your area (meetup.com and local Facebook groups are great places to start). Additionally, you want to start building your "Core 4": agent, GC, lender, and PM. 

Are you going to be using financing for the purchase and rehab? If so, it's a good idea to start mapping out both the rehab and refi portions. Happy to connect and good luck!

Hi Helena - 

This can be nuanced, but for DSCR loans there are a few options for you. Are you/your partner(s) foreign nationals or non-permanent resident aliens? Also, are you planning on going through an LLC? If so, then there can more flexibility there.

Happy to connect and chat further if you'd like!

Thank River for the answer. We're non-permanent resident aliens. Yes, it will definitely be through an LLC. Curious what the options are with a DSCR

I'll send you a dm!
