Hi @Nick Zocher,It's rare that anyone does this, but in theory you can...1) Buy using a normal mortgage, typically a 30 year fixed with a jacked up rate and fat lender credit.2) Not wait six months.3) Do your improvements to make ARV the current actual value.4) Cash out refinance with hard money or a friend or whatever.

I deal with all types of agents and personally don't care who they represent until I go to sell and have to pay a fat cat fee.
