Should I use a hard money loan to pay for the down payment, and go to another lender for a DSCR loan at the same time?

Look for downhill. 

They're alway busy of course but meeting with them for a focused, rapid fire shot of ideas has worked for me.

In my area, 300K properties aren't renting for 3K a month. 

There are pros and cons for us. 

My advice would be to ask around for prices.

Not for primary home or regular long term rentals. 

However, it seems that funding is going to be the biggest hurdle for us.  

If you sign up for this program, you will not be liable for any tenant debts.

My wife is also part ofa LP/GP (where she is the asset manager) that acquired a value-addapartment complex in Houston, where the renovations are now complete, and theGP is in preparations for the refinance.We are currently working on further expanding ourlocal portfolio and are planning out our next larger acquisitions.
