This isn't a cash out refinance. It will be a rate and term refinance. You will not be pulling any cash out.
There isn't a seasoning period for a rate and term refinance, and if a lender is telling you that it will be an overlay for their specific program.

I hate to say it, but that is not correct. There is a way to buy a rental without putting 20%+ down. An investor can buy a distressed property using hard money to acquire and rehab the property. Once the rehab is done, they can refinance with a conventional lender into a long term low interest loan. We have been doing this for years with clients and they have had great success.
You may not get into it for No Money Down, but it is certainly much less than the 20%+ down that a typical purchase would require. You have built the equity into the property by rehabbing it, negating the need for 20% down.

@Ryan Johnson @Brandon Hershey
I'm the host of the Meetup Dylan was referring to. It would be great if both of you could attend. It is a fantastic networking opportunity and best of all there is no cost to attend.
If you have any questions about the event or anything else, please feel free to contact me directly.
Thank you,
