Investor questions to settle before choosing terms

What should I review before financing an investment property?

Use supportable rent, taxes, insurance, HOA dues, management, maintenance, vacancy, utilities paid by the owner, repairs, reserves, financing costs, and the exit plan.

Should conventional investor and DSCR financing be compared?

Yes when both may fit. Compare qualification, rate and points, down payment, reserves, documentation, prepayment terms, property eligibility, and exit strategy.

Can projected short-term-rental income be treated as guaranteed?

No. Market tools can support research, but lender-required rent evidence, appraisal analysis, property rules, and local operating restrictions still control.

What should I send Matt for an investor review?

Send the property, price, rent and source, complete expenses, down payment, reserves, renovation needs, occupancy strategy, timeline, and exit plan.

Educational information only. Not a loan approval, rate quote, or commitment to lend. Final approval depends on borrower, property, program, pricing, and underwriting review.
