EP.22 - How to Buy Your Dream Home BEFORE Selling Your Current House | Bridge Loans Explained

You're about to lose your dream home because you haven't sold your current one. But what if there's a way to buy now and sell later? In this episode, Ryan Marks breaks down exactly how bridge loans work and how homeowners can use them to upgrade without the pressure of selling first. WHAT IS A BRIDGE LOAN? A bridge loan is a short-term loan that bridges the gap between selling your current home and buying your new one. It lets you: HOW BRIDGE LOANS WORK: The lender calculates your loan based on: * Value of your current home * Value of your new home * Outstanding loan balance on current property * Maximum loan-to-value (LTV) is typically 75% KEY QUESTIONS TO ASK: 1. What's my maximum loan amount based on my equity? 2. What are the rates and fees? 3. How long is the bridge period? 4. What happens if my house doesn't sell? 5.

EP.20 - DSCR Loans for 5+ Units - A Different Game Than 1-4 Unit Financing

Think DSCR loans are one-size-fits-all? Think again. Once you cross into 5-unit and above territory, the rules change — and so do the opportunities. In this episode, we break down how DSCR financing works for 5+ unit residential properties and why it's a completely different product than the 1-4 unit DSCR loans most investors are familiar with. From how lenders underwrite the deal to how debt coverage ratios are calculated across a larger rent roll, we walk you through what to expect and what lenders are really looking at. We also share a real-life client example of someone who used a 5+ unit DSCR loan to acquire a property, showing you exactly what the numbers looked like — purchase price, payment options, and how the debt service coverage ratio played out in practice. Plus, we dive into why interest-only payments can be a game changer for investors working to stabilize a property. When you're filling vacancies, making improvements, and pushing rents to market, that lower monthly obligation gives you breathing room and more cash flow right when you need it most. Whether you're scaling from a fourplex into your first small apartment building or actively shopping for 5+ unit deals, this episode gives you the financing playbook.
