If the insurance isn't done properly, it's on the edge of impossible to cash the check because it's made out to the lender, my company, and the seller(s). 

Also any tips for automating this as much as possible and how to protect the property financially and property management would be appreciated.I ALMOST understand the rental arbitrage strategy if building a company scaling with say 30 + units and looking for high short term cash flow.  

I would get an attorney or title company involved to create your loan documents to ensure they comply with the law and cover all the aspects you need.Another method that is likely your best bet to take on investors is to create a joint venture (JV).

The mortgage would stay under the seller's name.The buyer could then rent out the unit, renovate, etc. to increase cash flow or make more money.But aside from a possible "due on clause" being called by the mortgage company, what's the benefit to the seller?

We've built, ground-up, several homes and my mortgage company finances tons of new construction projects.
