.: So I have a house I am going to be selling in a couple weeks in the Clearwater Florida area, but I’m confused about what the agents are saying.

I may specialize in VA loans, but I also offer a range a conventional, FHA, USDA and commercial lending options. 

You might want to do an online search for brokerages in your area that offer larger commission splits or a flat fee to their agents. 

Then, just three weeks before closing, my largest commercial tenant—who brought in as much monthly revenue as all 25 mobile home tenants combined—announced they were moving to a location closer to their main office.

I looked at some properties in the Catskills last week that ultimately didn't fit the criteria.

I'd check local STR FB groups and see if you have a local Real Estate Club.You can offer your services there, maybe for free in exchange for the experience.

I would find properties, submit them to their portal and they would tell me what they would offer when the house was completely remodeled.  

I frequently see sub2 deals on FB and other sites and out of curiosity I look at what they are offering. 

I can send you a free guest pass to our general meeting next week and you can network with a couple hundred local investors and meet all kinds of vendors with hard money, private money, trades, title and wholesalers.

@Michaela Hayes What about these projects would make it compelling for a lender to offer 100% financing?
