In the past couple years the government has gotten together with the banks to streamline sales of foreclosures and market to a broader audience for higher prices.

Reputable companies operating in San Antonio:  Texas Quest Capital (Daniel Fleming),  Corridor Funding (Jason Hirko), Centejas Investments/ Wolverine Financial (Jeff Katz), Longhorn Investments (Jade Flores), SF Lending (Chris Jameson),  RE Capital (Mitchen Stephen & Raymon Braun), Streamline Funding (Romney Navarro), and several others. 

I've just started my investment company here in Portland and I've got a couple short sale deals in the beginning stages...the Option to purchase just sounds like a more streamline way to protect my interest...your thoughts?

Do these banks have integrations with the VRBO's and Airbnb's of the world in an effort to make the payment procedure streamlined? 

@Tom Fields Your current PMI (private mortgage insurance) will stay the same but after January 27th you'll be able to refinance or do a streamline into today’s rates and .5% less mortgage insurance.

@Kyle Gregg There's a Streamline 203(k) and a regular 203(k) loan.

“The idea with the new legislation is to streamline the process and get people with illegal suites to come forward and legalize them, now that it’s a lot quicker and easier to do it.”Hayes, who is a landlord himself, was a consultant on the pilot program, and has already reaped its benefits.

However,  let me know if you find someone that will lend without appraising.Fha streamlines don't require appraisal. 

If the numbers work, why not do the 203k streamline (FHA)?

Look into streamlined I heard its a bit better.
