[@BorderGuards]

If a conventional loan is not a bank or CU loan then what is the definition of conventional loan?

[@freedom_mentor]

@@BorderGuards Conventional means that the loan is sold to Fannie/Freddie on the secondary mortgage market. A local bank / credit union loan is one that a local bank or credit union originates and holds the paper and services it, rather than selling on the secondary mortgage market.

I started watching your videos in 2017 with a net worth of -$30k (college loans) . 2 flips and 10 rental properties later with your videos, I now have a net worth of $800k and I just turned 29 . I still drive my old Chevy 2001 Silverado from the beginning and recycled all my profits back into investments. Told myself I would not buy a new vehicle until I hit 1million. A quote you said in one of your first videos stuck with me “you don’t have to look rich, you don’t have to act rich, you can just be rich !” . Near a millionaire today and no one in my family knows .

@@Sakrific3r Nope still have the same truck (Chevy Silverado 2001). Only this time now I just recently bought my first apartment complex this past December (17 units). Once our remodel is complete, we expect it to bring in roughly $6000/mon NET after all expenses paid. After the remodel I am considering finally buying a new truck just for the tax deductions I can get with the new "bonus depreciation" IRS tax law. Not to mention my net worth will for sure be over the $1mil mark once the remodel is complete.

As a broker, the bulk of my business is non-QM. I’ve been surprised to find that you nailed it, Phil. Most brokers don’t want to mess with non-QM. The most popular product I’m closing in non-QM w/ investors is the DSCR loan. We don’t look at income at all with DSCR. The property qualifies using a 1007 appraisal to determine expected cash flow and closes faster than most other options.

[@BrianWingard]

Just watching this video now and saw your comment. Out of curiosity what is the appraisal process like? Do you hire a local person to view the property or do you simply look online for the value? Trying to educate myself some since I am in the market for a refi using dscr.

[@weschristensen]

@@BrianWingard oof just seeing your comment now, my bad! We order a local appraisal and an appraiser gets rental comps and defines an expected rental income. Some of my lenders will allow you to use Airbnb income history or AirDNA numbers if the property was already being used as a short term rental. Depends on the scenario but typically the appraisal is done in person.

[@seanlovesrealestate]

Portfolio lenders are definitely the way to go if you plan on scaling your rental portfolio. A couple things to note are that different loan types also have different origination and processing fees associated with them and that different lenders may have different lending requirements (i.e. min loan balance, DSCR, and prepayment penalties). For a new investor, it's definitely worth the time to speak with AS MANY lenders as possible when they're just getting started so that they can shop the best rates and terms.

[@bennybronco76]

An absolute WEALTH of information. Absolutely invaluable. And thanks for answering the question about the down payment most of these podcast fail to mention that. There's no way around it. I have heard mentioning of crowdfunding if you care to elaborate.

[@freedom_mentor]

Crowdfunding initially had huge momentum but then it suffered some major setbacks due to piss poor underwriting departments that didn't know what they were doing and bought the wrong properties at the wrong prices and with the wrong management. Whether the source of the funds is 1,000 people putting in $5,000 or an investment fund or private bank putting in $5MM; the underwriting is the key. There has always been more money for real estate than good deals. Sourcing money from the crowd was never needed to begin with; we already have all the money we will ever need for real estate. What's missing are good deals that are purchased and operated by smart investors.

[@AaronCMounts]

In 2023, no bank is making loans for rental properties for decent rates. It's all high interest rates. This was great advice for the time when rental property loans could be found 3-5%. Those just don't exist anymore.

[@ddubsr5886]

When discussing cons of moving real estate out of your name and into the LLC you overlooked the most important: triggering the due on sale clause

[@freedom_mentor]

I have never seen this actually happen to anyone, ever. If the LLC is 100% owned by the very same person, in my experiences over the past 20 years, no lender has ever enacted their rights under the security instrument to call the loan due.

How large is your down payment? How well does the rental property cash flow? What portfolio lender are you contacting?

[@thomasreto2997]

So, a question for you...we payed 20% down and needed the higher investment property fixed rate 30 year loan...the question is “After four or five years go by, we decide to move into our residential rental triplex and rent the other two units out short term to tourists and local rental laws CHANGE and BAN short term rentals...Are we “Grandfathered in” ? Does the county have to accommodate us or does the lender have to compensate us?

[@freedom_mentor]

(1) If you make your 3 unit your primary residence, when you move in, refinance into an owner occupied conventional loan to get a lower interest rate (and a lower down payment). (2) The short term vacation rental question is more complex. You may NOT be grandfathered in. I wasn't on 5 of my vacation rentals in Daytona Beach. I could have sued the City, and perhaps after 4 years of litigation, I may have won. But I could have lost too. So I didn't take them to court. The Achilles Heel of short term vacation rental investing is if you are doing it in an area that legislators in that region are trying to ban in.

Why is an LLC soooo necessary? If I can save 600$ monthly on a 500k property with a conventional loan why shouldn't I just do it in my name? I have a separate 1 mil umbrella policy for each propery and that is much much cheaper. It also doesnt mess with the DTI to do it that way. Sure no LLC is a drawback but that justifies paying 150k plus over the life of the loan in interest to go via a portfolio lender etc? Lets assume that credit union is not an option for me....

[@freedom_mentor]

How many times have you dealt with insurance companies? They can be AWFUL! They have teams of brilliant lawyers that spend all day coming up with ways NOT to payout claims; whether a property specific policy or an umbrella policy. And they always have limits. Owning each property in its own LLC is the best umbrella policy. And with Local Banks / Credit Unions providing the same loans as Conventional, but allowing for LLC borrowers, it's a no brainer.

Hi Phil, Love your super informative videos! I have a question about the subject in this older video. We're thinking about buying a single family home vacation rental. Current interest rates are going crazy compared to a year ago. I see 4%, 5%+. What do you think about doing a cash-out refi on our primary residence? I can get a 5/5 ARM with a rate of 2.65%. We owe about $215,000 on the home which is worth about $1.5M. Thanks! Russ

[@freedom_mentor]

It sounds like you have a tremendous amount of potential capital to deploy into real estate; whether you did at 5 Year ARM or a 30 year fixed rate, you could pull out a substantial amount of capital from your primary residence to use as a down payment on an income producing property that had a 70% LTV first mortgage. So you could theoretically purchase a $2M+ property (or several properties that add up to that amount). Money isn’t your problem. I would guess the bigger issue is finding highly productive income producing properties to purchase as explained in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGXXgoeKm5KopKs
