Live in Flip Mortgage for Self-employed <2 years!

Hi BP Community

Looking for lenders / lending options to purchase a home as a live-in-flip.  This would be the second time I (my family) has done this, only this time I've been self-employed for <1 year now vs. previously I was a W2 employee.

Currently on the phone with local banks, ideally looking to use a 203k rehab + proceeds from selling our current primary.

Any/all recommendations are appreciated!

    I always recommend checking with your local credit unions:
    --better rates
    --local decisions
    --community connection
    --opportunity to build long term relationships.
    My 2 cents,
    Mike

    I may be able to help as an FHA 203K as you mentioned, but need to dig a little further as to your self employment business and if your were in the same line of work as a W-2 employee.

    Maybe be easier to talk on the phone for 5 minutes. 

    Send me a DM if you want to connect.

    Thanks

    Craig
