Good Morning BP Members,My intent today is to reaffirm the value of cold calling, be it using the cell phone, in a seminar, food shopping, or any place where you have an opportunity to introduce yourself and your company services, etc.We all have a story and most folks would like to share it or listen to one that is sincere, professional, and passionate.Your communication needs to be brief to get your message across in a short time (20 - 30 seconds). 

What is the financing workaround for someone who would like to acquire 2-5 properties annually and prefers to develop and maintain a relationship with one banker?

Just food for thought....

Hi Allison,Just some food for thought.

@Wala HabibyInvestment preferably duplex, triplex, but I will go with a SFH if nothings available

Although I typically prefer to work with mortgage brokers as opposed to banks, I would suggest reaching out to some local banks, possibly credit unions, and see if any of them have different loan stipulations that would allow you to purchase the owner-occupied duplex without a cosigner. 

I am currently looking to utilize my VA Loan for a small multi family (preferably a triplex/quadplex)  house hack one unit, and hold the property as a cushion to stabilize myself in my real estate journey.

In my personal preference I would be inclined towards the 2nd route for the time being, which would allow you to make a friend successful AND you would profit nicely.
