Many have approached me about how to do this or that or how can I streamline and grow, but have not even set up a proper entity.

Yes, but we prefer to work intermediary specialists such as Host to better manage and streamline the origination process

After about a year, I decided to look for a good option that would help to streamline this process.

I too would rather access streamlined information than to have to read a lot of opinions and try to extract what I think is factual.

This is true for the Original FHA 203k rehab loan BUT not true for the FHA 203k STREAMLINE also know as the Limited 203k Mortgage.

It's called streamlining...

Would have figured this process to be a lot more streamlined but that's probably expecting too much from a local bureaucracy...In today's auction, a buyer bid on a 200K+ property only to be told by his fellow bidder that he was bidding on a 2nd Lien.  

I would ultimately want to refinance the property after rehabbing it and streamlining operations in order to buy out the investors.

I guess this is sort of a bigger version of that.Still not sure this is the right crypto approach for STR but it'd be interesting to watch.
