    If you're planning on taking out loans to buy your properties, lenders will most likely look for an exceptional credit history, no history of foreclosures or evictions, and a current source of income. Find a lender or mortgage broker who can help you secure financing for your new real estate rental business on an ongoing basis.

    Default Type of business?

    Are you starting a business to buy real estate, or to sell it? If you are just buying real estate, it would be wise to speak with your mortgage professional regarding the rules for buying and refinancing. Most lenders will not lend to a business entity for real estate, but rather only to an individual. Most investors in Colorado either buy in their name and then immediately title to a trust/llc, or they find a hard money lender that will loan directly to an llc. This goes for refinancing as well. Out here, to refinance a property, it is much easier to title it back to your name before the refi, especially if the credit report shows that you personally are making the debt payments on the home (remember that you most likely purchased it in your name even though you then quit claimed it to the business entity). It would also be very wise to speak with a local real estate attorney and discuss your intentions with your business; they can then best guide you as to what type of business entity would be best e.g. llc, corp, etc.
