Home is a 3/2 1,400 SQFT home on a 8,300 SQFT lot Purchase Price $155k (01/29/16)around $25-30k in rehab and closing cost  Estimated sale price $250-260k Here are some photo, hopefully I can show you guys the finished product but this would give you a great idea of that we've done and the quality! 

I look at it a a hobby and something that will provide me a valuable product compared to any other hobbies.

The 4k I save could go in to those systems; but saving to produce a subpar product is not something I am willing to do; you've got a good point the more seasoning I have the better deal I can negotiate on both ends.

Often you will have paid the general contractor but they may forget to pay the subs.Have written standards that detail what the completed product should look like.  

There's a coop auction coming up in my area.I wonder - if i win the auction - can coop board decline to give me ownership?

We just completed a 20 unit new construction apartment project and are now seeking investors for a for sale product consisting of 8 townhomes.

If you want a short seasoning period, you will likely be getting a commercial product.  

There aren't too many banks that offer this product, and now even one of the banks I have a PLOC with no longer offers it.

In addition, our properties are going to be made "purpose-built," a finished product thats specifically designed to attract today's college students with amenities that appeal to that demographic.

The product can be a bit more appealing compared to FHA since there is no mortgage insurance involved.
