Chris,
Do you know of any lenders there in the Kansas City area that can do a refinance loan on a single family that is a investment property that has been owned now for six months? It was bought as an REO and rehabbed using hard money. The person who is refinancing this property, this would be there first investment property. Let me know if you know of any.
Thanks,
James Peterson

You’ll just really need to sit down and start calling. I’d say on a refi for an investment property you’re probably talking about an ltv of no more than 70%, a point, maybe a point and a half. The six months thing is probably do-able though a little while ago the seasoning was a year.
I don’t have too many folks needing to do that so I don’t follow it as closely as I should. Hard money is a tough row to hoe these days.

Hello Chris
I noticed that you got your start working with a broker and learning the ropes of real estate. I want to do something like that, I live in Waco, Tx where that opportunity doesn’t come easy. Any suggestions of how I can get my feet inthe door for investments, and then onto commercial design and building.
thanks.
