Even when I run the numbers with a 25% down payment, I am having difficulty seeing anything that would even approach a positive cash flow using rough parameters like the 50% rule, except rarely in a class-D "warzone" neighborhood in which I'd be wary to go for a run even in daytime. 

Thanks, I'm not sure if I'll be able to procure enough skin in the game to win them over, but it's been enlightening so far.

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

It makes me worry that I would had difficulty finding a good tenant who would pay at medium rent and even worst s/he might not be able to pay or delay payment for months.

Dont use excuses to stop you from moving forward, simply find a way to make it possible. my intent wasn't to throw up roadblocks, just setting expectations. the expectation of banks is usually for the borrower to have skin in the game, this is not a hard and fast rule, but one that shouldn't be expected to overcome.

I am in the process of trying to finance my fourth rental property and having a difficulty finding a lander for the rental property mortgage who would finance less than 75k.

I guess my questions to you all here is how easy (or difficult) is it to get funding for flipping projects starting out with no experience?

These coaches/mentors will be more invested (they have skin in the game just like the banks will want from you when you borrow) and are a little easier to get a hold of when you need help.

Boy, had some difficulty with the links there...WaiverPamphlet

I will likely just adjust the offer to cover the $ amount the seller would receive in rent.There are two factors that concern me in the potential difficulty in getting the tenants to vacate the property, 1 is they are paying very cheap rent for the stats of the home and 2 the grow room obviously was constructed with considerable effort which I anticipate may influence them to dig their heels in and potentially squat illegally.
