A developer, flipper, or wholesaler are considered to be "dealers" meaning they are like a store with product on the shelve, that they sell. 

The one I am used to using provides cost estimates of various rehab products based on specs about the house.

A new business owner can spend a fortune on a custom website before their product, audience and goals are even flushed out.

Yea you could do it like that, but usually your lender is a broker and can find you the best products as that is their profession.

The cost to evict, in terms of lost rent, vacancy, turnover costs, plus the work involved to secure a new tenant who ON AVERAGE will be WORSE than the one you would be evicting sounds counter-productive.

Andrew - The other item I share with the contractor is that if the township/borough/city has any issues/questions with the work product I always request them to address/fix.

My broker's property management company is local to the area and very familiar and comfortable with this product type if you want hands off management.

Thank you,Dave Check out DSCR Loans - no DTI is the key aspect of the loan product. 

As far as I'm aware, most loan products that underwrite off of a W2 income require 2 years of work history. 

Also, they have limited and low quality products that you choose from for materials such as flooring  bathtubs, and lighting, etc.
