Most have red-lined the subdivision where the house is located as "Karst Sensitive", and won't insure at all... or won't cover sinkholes if they do.For what it is worth, I bought seven from this auction company last month, all from the same "owner/developer", and the tenants have mostly been good ones.

The owner is not responsible for the safeguarding of the property. 

Lenders are very fearful of the prospect of foreclosing on a church.There are groups that lend on churches but many are geographically sensitive, and there needs to be some source of repayment.

That is a great look but end buyers in my markets are sensitive to making sure there are enough kitchen cabinets in these smaller homes.Best of luck in your future endeavors.

At this time flipping will be even more time sensitive than normal and new players to the game will suffer.
