Quote from @Reed Rickenbach: No need to look further than the @Dean Harris and @Douglas Skipworth video they do every year.

But with the right local or portfolio lender, it’s definitely possible.My advice: the YouTube video’s not wrong, but it’s only half the story — you just need the right lender and clean documentation. 

Quick question though: are all these terms still relevant when analyzing small multifamily deals (under 5 units)?

For inspections, simplify to milestone-based photo/video plus one surprise spot check, and disclose exact draw timelines and fees before closing.

. • This is often called the “short-term rental loophole.”Based on what you shared, the short-term rental route may be the relevant path here.There are very specific requirements to document material participation, average stay duration, guest interaction levels, etc., so the details matter. 

The more specific you get, the easier it’ll be for others to offer relevant advice or connections.

Quote from @James Friar: Hello bigger pockets family my name is James and I'm fairly new to real estate investing, ive been educating myself on kinda how things work (the lingo, terms,concepts) and still trying to figure out the process of this feild and after watching so many videos and listening to other investors experiences i decided that i would like to take the new land construction route, i was just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction on how to get my feet with this process.

Loan to value is relevant. 100% financing on a 50% LTV property is different than 100% financing on a 80% LTV property.

They are agents and lenders, but have they actually done a successful Brrrr ever or more relevant in the last couple years?

It only becomes relevant in the event the primary GL policy's limit is exhausted.
