Luckily I am in a prime location and have a unique house.I am still optimizing my airbnb, I need more professional pictures, I need to get Superhost/Primier host status, I need to find a way to atleast be in the first 3 pages in the Airbnb search consistently (which I am currently but it fluctuates), and so on.

If you do not have those it will extremely hard to ever sell it to someone who will require bank/lender financing or refinance it down the road if you want to pull out cash on the ARV or future equity.The other rule of thumb is that you buy it New and that it was never on another property or location, simple built onsite or trailered in from warehouse. 

.: @Gash Nookala - if your property is not in the Hampton Cove area of Owens Cross Roads, you honestly are not in an ideal location for a rental. 

I'm trying to get financing lined up before I find a deal. I want to do a seller financed deal that allows me to put less down, but I still have to come out of pocket the rest of the down payment and construction cost...

It seems that you're located in Columbus, Ohio.

I would highly recommend you work with someone that is either located in the same state as you, or explicitly says they have experience with your state.

As Sean Wagner mentioned, the city of Chicago has adopted their own regulations on charging what's commonly referred to as a "security deposit" you need to do it another way. 

By working with motivated sellers, I’m able to secure below-market deals and pass those savings onto buyers.

See if any of them will allow you to use their address as a virtual location on the Internet.
