Hey @Mark Killion, 1) this is great that you posted this.

The more material you buy the better your discount gets.When your contractor gets a discount, they don't pass the savings on to you, they mark it up, and rightly so because they had to take the time to go pick it out and load it up, and we expect to get paid for our time.So ya, if you have the time and a truck (and sometimes trailer) to do it yourself, do it, or get it delivered for like $75.

HMLs can definitely lend up to 70% ARV for which in this case you already seem to be at, but most want atleast some skin in the game even if you hit that mark. 

I've fostered a relationship with them and the commercial side will fund 80% of the purchase and 100% of the rehab and then at the 6 month mark they will move it over to the residential side so I can refinance my cash out and lock in a 30 year fixed rate. 

@Mark Spritz I’ve bought plenty of properties in cleveland heights,.

But how do you pay it off at the 10 year mark if you can't refinance?
