Refinance Mortgage Rules

Rules on refinancing a rental property?
I got a new job on Jan. 8 and my wife and me moved to our new location and stayed with relatives while we sold our house. One problem, the market went to crap in our area and the house sat on the market in seven months. We needed to move into a better living situation that we had kept our given time with the family, so we decided to put the house up for rent and rent a space in our new location. Then about one month later we found a tenant and found a place to rent. The problem is the rent we do not cover our mortgage ($ 500) card, so we want to refinance. Then here are my questions: 1 What is the best way to do this? 2nd At what point is our house considered a rental property? 3rd If it is already regarded as a lease, the rates of terrible? 4th Since the house was market, should I wait for 6 months? Thanks for all and all for help! – Rich
As soon as you began to collect income was the rental properties. Your rate will not be terrible, and your debt to income levels improve, then you have all this extra income now. Take it off the market until you have this done, you can not refi, while it may be for sale.
