New Investor - Financing a Fix + Flip?
Hi everyone, we finally did it. Took the first step and put an offer on a property. Now we need to finance it. We spoke to Quicken and said they wouldn't finance our investment, because it wasn't a primary residence or vacation home. They also said assets cannot be used when financing investment properties.
Problem is we're not sure how to finance this. Do we say it's a vacation home? Does anybody know a lender in the Seattle area?
Specifics -
Currently own primary residence with mortgage. I am not currently working. My wife's income is about 35k/yr. Combined we have approx. $1million in assets, above and beyond primary residence.
Any ideas how to finance this and any lenders in Seattle area?
Thanks!
Steve

They have awesome loan options. The Fix and Flip sounds like a good direction for you all. Rod is very knowledgeable and a great help. Give him a call and let me know how it goes...
