There's some traditional lenders in there, too.

The "slow flip" I am referring to was purchase the property in the traditional financing way and then live there while rehabbing and improving (adding bedrooms, getting the yards back in shape, updating finishes, building or adding shop space, etc.).

There are some services like Guest Ranger but we do not screen in the traditional sense.Make your house rules clear and make it clear they are enforced, then they tend to screen themselves. 

Quote from @Stuart Udis: Not creative, but good real estate and traditional financing is almost always better than incredible seller financing terms and lousy real estate.

Live in one unit and rent out the others to cover your mortgage.Seller Financing: Negotiate terms with the property seller where they act as the lender, often requiring a smaller down payment and bypassing traditional underwriting.Partnerships or Joint Ventures: Partner with an investor who provides the capital in exchange for a share of the property’s equity or income.Lease Options: Use a rent-to-own agreement, which allows you to control the property while saving for a formal purchase.BRRRR Method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat): Acquire a distressed property with short-term financing, rehab it to increase value, rent it out, and refinance to recoup your initial investment.Pro TipStay in close communication with your lender as you approach your next purchase.
