Assuming the no cash will be an ongoing problem you probably need to leverage other credit.First what I mean is that not only will the lender not front cash, they probably will want you to pay the interim bills then reimburse you once the inspect.  

Raise is supposedly looking into the matter regarding reimbursement but I'm still waiting.The actual cards are still being accepted without issue. 

If you remove and install the stuff yourself, I don't know if you'll be able to get your labor reimbursed.

If it is just a clogged "P" Trap under your tub (or just hair accumulation in the line that is pulled back by the snake), or something put down the toilet that should not have been, the Tenant should reimburse you for the service call.Also, it is a very poor idea to recommend or allow Tenants to use "drain cleaner" to clear a slow or blocked line.

(Our multi-tenant buildings typically get reimbursed by tenants) The scope of the work includes invoicing, bookkeeping, paying bills, oversight on light repairs and maintenance, and communicating with tenant requests. 

Then after closing I could execute the seller financing for 10% or sometimes 20% with would reimburse some of my original down.  

In the cases where another party had purchased the land at the auction, I had to pay them 10% interest (pro-rated), as well as reimburse them for the amount they paid.

With an REO you as the agent are responsible for carrying all the costs of the utilities on the property until the property sells, then you get reimbursed at settlement.Most of the REO's in our area are handled by small single person brokerages who have a working relationship with the asset managers at the banks and Fannie Mae.  

Maybe even volunteer to be the one who purchases all house consumables and then have them pay you a reimbursement based on normal value + tax and then use the strategy I just mentioned to save around 10% on trash bags, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc. now your making money and you get to choose what your buying.

That's for sure, especially your first few.Figure putting down 20% of the purchase but getting the rehab funds for the project that get distributed on completed work only, which means you need to complete items on the rehab budget out of pocket first then get reimbursed at the end of the project on the last draw.You can bring value to a deal without having the money.
