So, the common person may ask - well how is me funding the rehab myself any more risky for the lender/why would they want to limit leverage?

Make sure to have 2 back up teams that you think are fully ready to go as well, in case the first team lets you down (I have fired my first property management company 100% of the time). 

I am trying to find a mentor and have a relationship that I think will work out well.

Also, our team has a lot of experience in working with Sec 8 residents and getting properties approved.

A solid property management team (or maybe multiple PMs if your portfolio is large enough) is a must for out of state investing.
