Hey @Brandon Toron,Given your plan to turn the property into a short-term rental (STR), you have a few creative ways to push closer to that 90% cash-out goal, even if traditional lenders shy away from it:1. 

If you are planning on selling, contact a realtor to make sure you are getting a fair value for your house. 

If you’re planning investing in the St Pete area, I recommend connecting with Josh Green.

Talk to a CPA to see how it fits your plan. 

Just plan on paying the agent's fee if you are successful.

It depends on the rental income, what you plan on putting down (20-25% is typical, 15% or 25% is required for conventional depending on # of units) For your owner occupied deal, you should be able to use a portion of the rental income to qualify and help offset your DTI a bit. 

I don't plan on going on the actual auctions :/.   

Generally there are multiple units for each "zone" if you will when I've seen them installed.Regarding your problem at hand, I personally would simply adjust your plan to move and make your initial plan to get the current issues resolved, while costly now, in the long run holding onto the unit will likely pay off. 

Top 3 reasons owners hire PMCs:1) No time to manage correctly2) No time to learn how to manage correcly: laws, documents, processes, etc.3) They're too nice and need someone to "save them from themselves"A good PMC can usually earn their fees by better managing the property/tenant than the owner, thereby:1) Increasing owners net profit2) Decreasing owner's time commitment, stress, headaches, etc.No matter what though, you should always plan to commit a couple of hours a month to manage your PMC.

If you’re not occupying the property and plan to either sell it or keep it as a rental, you might want to consider a bridge loan through a hard money lender.
