You'll also likely want a relationship with another smaller local bank who can help fund the deals quickly.Carson Bank, Vintage Bank, Rose Hill Bank, Union State Bank, Stock Exchange Bank (Ark City) are a few of the smaller local ones I know would be able to act quickly and wont screw you on closing costs.I've personally used Carson and Union State Bank (formerly Relianz)  - Have spoken to Rose Hill and Vintage about their programs however have not ruled out using them in the future.I'm sure there's a few other smaller banks I've left off, but going off the cuff those are the ones I remember.

@Wesston Faux you are pretty much on the right track with your thinking.

@Austin Faux bandit signs can bring in tons of calls around any location.

My peeps that want to be ACTUALLY super aggressive, I originate a faux 123 Main St deal and actually send it through underwriting for formal loan approval.

UNLESS the water damaged your personal property - for example, you had vintage records stacked on the floor that were damaged, the Association's insurance isn't going to cover your personal property. 

Depending on the walls and the finishings you're using, maybe you could do a faux venetian plaster paint on the walls that are too much hassle to drywall.  

There are many investors that can handle homes of this age/vintage, but I don't recommend it for the inexperienced.  

Two years pass and the tenant wants an eight month lease - due to work transfer - and I agree.Five or so weeks before the eight months are over there is a break-in and some jewelry is stolen.  

Hardwood, parquet, faux-hardwood, tile, etc. are much easier to clean and you won't reduce your pool of potential tenants/buyers.

@Austin Faux if everyone wants to close, then a napkin works with exactly what you wrote in your post on it.
