You don't need an ITIN to purchase, but will need one prior to next tax filing season with IRS.  5.

Facts below:-3.5 month close to season downpayment fund source i will be using-$500 earnest money deposit-Current Valuation: $180,000-Sale Price: $170,000-Tentants in place, rented at $1290/mo-historical 1% vacancy

This home has just the right mix of old and new to make this the house a place you can call home!

I've seen very mixed reactions.

My interest quickly grew beyond the short-term rental world as I listened to seasoned investors' testimonies of success at BRRRR-ing, flipping, wholesaling, and more.

You can diversify into other countries and land rights often have strong rights because they affect all classes and thus, all classes want to defend their home or farm rights.Do you know anything about this asset mix relative to stocks and bonds?

(I have been reading books, cleaning up spreadsheets and preparing for tax season, enjoying my family) Is there more I could be doing?

Lots of investors use cash-out refinances as part of the BRRR strategy to pull money out after rehabbing and increasing the ARV, but generally need to wait a 6 month seasoning period if the capital they used up front was borrowed somehow (hard money, private money).

Try a different lender and the first question you want to ask is about their "seasoning" period. 

After I purchase another property and the opportunity presents itself, Is there any loop holes if I need to purchase another property before the seasoning period is up?
