They have more flexibility than captive agents, just make sure they are in the area of the property so that they understand the market.

I am a "nano" broker in the Cleveland market, and provide property management services to a captive set of client/investors in this market (I am not soliciting your business).

You have a captive or motivated seller on your hands.

@Dan NguyenTotal Money Makeover by Dave RamseyHe is captivating but don’t fall for the shows or ongoing classes he offers.

At least one will loan you the money to finance inventory and then loan (if you have one) your captive finance company the money to make loans to the the purchaser of the homes with which the inventory financing is paid off.

But with rent being set, I often wonder if other landlords have found ways to find incremental increases in revenue (that likely flow directly to the bottom line) with our captive audience? 

@Mike Dawson- there are LLPA ( loan level pricing  adj )  for   1) property being a rental  2) loan to  value  3) property being a condo  4) possibly for the  condo tel aspect  ..... all these  lead to  rate/ term  pricing being  higher ...many lenders  wont  lend on condo tels ......the lenders  able to  lend on  condotels  will  likely price their loans  high as  they have a  bit of a captive  market  ....I  would  recommend  trying to  find the lenders  that have  made loans in the  subject complex and  contract these  lenders for options

That is the first step, and depending on the state, it may take you 90 days to over a year just to be legal when making loans.All of that said, many, many community owners have their own related or captive finance operations.

The insurance marketplace is regulated at the state level, and most captive agents (Allstate, State Farm, etc.) only get licensed in the state where their office is.
