Check in with @Joseph Chiofalo though..they have a few investors that provide lending on lease holds and/or work with foreign investors nationwide for conventional title.

I'd suggest finding an investment brokerage that sources deals and double closes as well.

Hey everyone, my name is Peter Firehock, and I work in Alexandria Virginia as an Acquisitions Associate for a real estate investment fund called BPG Holdings, helping the fund source multi-family investment opportunities in Northern Virginia and D.C.m as well as an investment-focused realtor in the D.C.

The City of San Jose has on their website that new addresses are required but separate meters are optional (link below).https://snapadu.com/blog/electric-panels-upgrades-power-sources-adu/https://cao-94612.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/City-of-Oakland.PGE-Joint-Information-Bulletin-METERS-FINAL.pdfhttps://www.sanjoseca.gov/business/development-services-permit-center/accessory-dwelling-units-adus/adu-faqs

You'd have to do all the legwork in sourcing the opportunity. 

What's the breakdown between direct-to-seller, through a broker, or other source?

As you're probably aware, cashflow is very difficult without a large down payment or the ability to cover negative cashflow with other sources of income.

Unless the property is big and/or you are only going to source Section 8 tenants, I think it is unlikely that you will get $1,700 to $1,900 per unit. 

A couple of other sources that could generate flips are expired, withdrawn and canceled listings. 

My international bookings, which usually comes from Booking com, have completely dried up ever since the dollar got real strong against foreign currency.
