You reference taking out a HELOC and those are generally provided when the property is in your personal name, which I don't recommend for investment properties.Overall, it sounds as if you're tired of dealing with "long distance" ownership.

Despite the program's claims of providing exceptional training and support, my experience with Kristin has been far from satisfactory.First and foremost, I find it necessary to address the issue of non-payment.

Does any one have any leads on lenders who provide loan for groundup constructions and the criteria?

We provide new construction rentals and PM (single family, duplexes and Quads) for investors.

Patricia,I wouldn’t rely solely on the seller’s agent, as they are only sharing information provided by the seller and represent the seller’s interests, not yours.

If you have not already purchased this policy, I would look for a policy that provided a stated amount deductible for wind/hail vs. a % deductible.

Our state licensing department provides the list of licensees for free upon request. 

Currently, I am looking at Hemlame for local, I tried to use them for an out-of-state investment property, but the cost with an agent would end up far greater than a full-service property manager.The dream option would combine all accounting, bill pay, rent collection, provide eviction services, and maintenance coordination outside of normal hours.

They aren’t able to get a mortgage themselves so they would provide the money while the mortgage and deed would be in the others name.  

This led me to researching schools in my area that provided degrees in construction.
