Otherwise the buyer of your property can try to leverage you since you’re on a tight close time frame.4.  

I was the buyer and the seller in the entire process.

Are you asking as a buyer, or as a loan officer?

I know of a few in the PCB Florida area Pretty basic, and I am small scale. 

Additionally, we have Samsung Plus, which is a free streaming service that for the most part is comparable to "basic cable", but without the local channels.

There are a few others here on bigger pockets who have endeavored to do so and can attest to this  (but I will not name them).Basically AHP bought 1000s of low value non-performing loans, these require the most oversight mainly due to the condition of the properties. 

I maxed out my conventional rental loans when I had around 20 units, and that was basically hellish. 

What makes it slow in this case is that you don't really start seeing real cash flow until after year five but it's more effective than rentals in that there is little to no maintenance.Sure you can live in a home while fixing it up with the intention of selling it for a nice profit later but I think many people are already doing that and the buyers of slow flips now also have that opportunity without having to qualify with a bank.

Basically I’m just trying to figure out which direction to go in.
