I know an investor that might partner with you on the lot next door and/or may buy your lot without the title policy.I have already got the deed for that lot and another lot that i bought.. the second one is not waterview but it is .694 and soon to be listed on the MLS for 18k.. im still waiting for the lady to come and see hers and say shes ready to sale.. her family was affected by the hurricane and hopefully she will be able to head this way soon.. ive started to try to wholesale here in jasper and have several deals lined up but cant find any investors in my area looking to buy.. i just now saw this or would of replied along time ago.. i dont know how to do the mentions with the @.. every time i try it dont work 

I have it narrowed down to two agents, one has more general experience in the area and are part of a large organization.  

Our rates are 7-12%, with no down payment required.

There are loan programs that will do a 20% down payment with a 680 or above credit score. 

The deduction is optimized as values increase and can potentially offset the entire net investment (including down payment) for high wage earners.

I am sure a Thumbtack PM works great when something legal goes down lol.

Overcoming Common Financing HurdlesMortgage brokers excel at tackling challenges that often derail new investors:Low Down Payments: Brokers can find lenders offering low or no-down-payment loans, ideal for new investors with limited capital.Complex Income Streams: If you’re self-employed or have variable income, brokers can identify lenders that accept alternative documentation.Competitive Rates: Brokers have the leverage to negotiate better rates and fees, saving you thousands over the life of your loan.Pro Tip: Communicate your investment goals clearly with your broker so they can tailor their search to your needs, whether it’s a short-term fix-and-flip loan or a long-term rental property mortgage.3.

Will refinance if rates go down in the future. 

This vary heavily town to town. 20% down is great if buying strictly as investment but if you have a way of owner occupying I would explore that route and apply the 20% down to increasing value of property and instead using low money down loan. 

@Andrew Wade first narrow down if you want to be an active or passive investor.
