Quote from @Slaven Slugic: I have pre construction condo coming up in January that ill do short term rental.

A lot of people think creative financing is a buyer’s tool, but you’ve done a great job showing how it can be just as powerful on the sell side—especially when used intentionally and with a firm understanding of your position.I’ve started incorporating some of these strategies myself, particularly around owner financing and pre-sale refinancing to increase buyer flexibility.

I just finished pre-licensing and honestly I've seen some examples of the licensing exam and I feel like I don't know most of the stuff.

Depending on your wedding plans, go simpler and spend less on the wedding and use that extra money for a larger down payment. 

Here I am, marketing my first investment property, and wondering if I’m doing this wrong.
I’ve got my townhouse listed on Zillow etc, Facebook, a nonprofit for voucher holders and affordable housing.com. When people ...

Hi all,  my question pertains to the step after a pre approval.

It’s a great opportunity to scale and control more of the block, but I’m stuck figuring out how to finance a third property, especially with the following constraints:  My Challenges:  My current home is under an FHA loan, so I can’t use another FHA product.I’ll need to refinance the FHA loan to convert the property into a conventional investment loan, but I haven’t built up 20% equity yet (even though appreciation helps, I know lenders go by appraised LTV).Down payment for a conventional loan would likely be 20-25%, which is hard to come up with quickly.My DTI is decent, but cash reserves are tight.We’d ideally like to purchase before our wedding in Feb 2026 while we still qualify individually.   

Wed like to start looking and buy something during the fall winter so we can remodel and have it ready for the summer rental season and see we can visit as well.

But they said that all this can be done without using your own money by incorporating OPM (other people's money) it went along the lines of first finding a off-market deal 20% or more discount of the asking price.
