With comps ranging from $875K-$1M and your estimated build cost at $550K, the after-completion value gives you a significant equity cushion, making this project highly attractive to lenders.If you plan to hold and rent the property, you could refinance into a DSCR loan after construction, which bases lending on rental income rather than personal income.

Avoiding accessive PM fees (personally I recommend most people self-manage)These will eat away at your ROI.

I have a couple lenders who say they could "figure it out", but it would require some grey area finagling like having the tenant sign a lease personally instead of the company.So the questions is, what do I do now.

Required good credit, adequate reserves, full doc commercial loan with a personal guarantee.  

Personally for what people charge for these programs I would say you are 1000x  better off taking some courses at a local college, getting a degree and working in real estate to get paid for experience and then do real estate on the side for your own portfolio as well.

Personally I would pass but if you go forward I would do a lot of research on the group you are renting to and get a very large security deposit to cover damage. 

There are any number of Real Estate schools available to you, so choose the one that compliments your learning style, whether that be online or in person or a hybrid. 

Point noted about not being able to underwrite without seeing things in person.

I personally don't know of their group but figured id link that article since i remember reading it and the name clicked. 

It actually says “Loans to Partner (or persons related to Partners)”.
