This is all new stuff too, not junk.

I’m looking for a brokerage where I can put my language skills and international cultural experience to work helping both homebuyers and investors.A bit about me: I hold a Master’s in International Business and a Bachelor’s in IT.

Can't say I have come across folks who are seeking to learn as an intern.

Publishing criteria (like “3x rent income” or “650+ credit”) is fine, but it can open you up to unnecessary back-and-forth or legal gray areas if phrased wrong.Best practice:Keep your criteria written down internally (income, credit, rental history, etc.).Apply those same standards to every applicant and keep a record of your process.When someone inquires, you can share your criteria in writing or over email so everyone gets the same info — that’s what shows consistency.If you want, I can share a quick example of a fair housing–friendly screening checklist I use with my clients, just message me and I’ll send it over.

When it comes to structuring a deal, most developers focus on the capital gap — but lenders focus on readiness.Over the last few years, I’ve noticed that deals move faster (and get better terms) when the borrower has a clean due diligence stack ready before approaching mezzanine or bridge lenders.Here’s a quick checklist we use internally before structuring mezzanine capital between $1M–$100M+ :✅ Updated project financials✅ Detailed pro forma with realistic DSCR assumptions✅ Rent roll or trailing 12-month P&L✅ Capital stack breakdown showing senior + subordinate layers✅ Clear exit or refinance planHaving these ready builds lender confidence and speeds up funding timelines.💡 Curious — for those of you who’ve raised mezzanine or bridge capital recently:What’s one document or metric lenders focused on the most during your due diligence?

Although I have seen posts about JT on here, I doubt there is a ton of depth since this is a national/international forum. 

They claimed their internal valuation came in $10K lower, so they could only offer 80% LTV.I was shocked.
