Might need to just get to a more informed person at the lender to ask these questions, or get your attorney involved. 

In Memphis, TN, evaluating a property's potential involves more than just looking at its zip code.

I also don't know how day-to-day you are involved with your deals, but it sounds like what you are running into is a scaling problem (private lenders aside) - you can't do more deals because you don't have the bandwidth to do more. 

Long-term rentals offer steadier income with less day-to-day involvement.

Quote from @Michael Lynch: People rarely talk about the amount of effort involved in operating a STR.Never sell a property unless you have a clear plan to reinvest the money into something that will perform better or move you closer to your goals.

To get started, consider VA loans, which offer 0% down and no PMI, and house hacking, which involves buying a duplex or triplex and renting out the others.

Thank you Ned, that is exactly right, we actually check a condo/townhouse about 2 weeks ago, the thing was a condo with a basement, I cannot tell if it was a condo or townhome, anyway, the ceiling in the first floor was bowing, the 2nd floor, one of the bedroom was sinking, could not tell how this damage was done but the walls came apart from the floor, you could see the roof of the unit bowing inwards towards the structure a bit, and their "general contractor" estimate that for 5k they could straighten the property and level everything, even 1 window and 1 door looked so uneven that you would think  there was something wrong with your eyes...5k for structural damage, good luck with that one, we ran as far as we could from that....but we have seen they do inflate their ARV, since we learned the hard way , we go through these deals with a magnifying glass, I knew I was not so picky, numbers do not lie.Another thing that caught my attention, which I do not know if I am overly suspicious now that I am older, but they want to get the closing for us at the same time/day they are getting the property from whoever they buying it, which it seems to me they try to save on the closing by having a "dual" closing when in reality is just 1 closing and we are the one paying for it...I do not know there are few things that do not click right with this folks.

We advertisers would buy banners and email links, sponsor crap and flourish all without the consumer (eye balls) being force fed.   

The last time I did an insurance MTR it involved my work truck, an alternating current generator, 150 feet of extension cord, a sawzall, an appliance dolly, my 14 foot trailer, a house with fire damage and a $3000 Samsung French door fridge.Don't expect to make any money without doing any work.

Anything that involves a licensed architect or engineer providing a stamp is going to cost something, because they will review the person's work to determine if they're willing to bear the liability for that, and that takes man-hours.My previous firms always flat-out refused to stamp someone else's drawings because they had no idea whether any of it was on the level.
