I’ve heard of a few different options but would love to hear your experiences, especially if you've used gap funding on flips, new construction, or commercial projects.

Here, in Portland, we have to offer an option for Appealing a denial.

If you're considering purchasing under a business name, consult a CPA or attorney for setup and financing options.

Give them a couple of options, they already know the unit got foreclosed, most people move to avoid the hassle. 

So those are kind of my options- rent at a loss or sell for the balance.

If there are lease violations, mention them-you not having a key to access the unit WITH proper notice or in case of emergency is one of them.I'd also tell the tenant that they are clearly not happy there, so finding a new place is in their best interest as well and as they have several months, they should have lots of options.

Obviously the numbers and location would determine which is the best option for me but these would be my preferred methods. 

My two favorite loan options for getting started are the FHA 203k or the Fannie May Home Style. 

Airbnb.org, the nonprofit arm of airbnb.com, offers hosts options to assist with emergency housing in times of crisis, such as the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires.

Hey proper used to be a good option years ago when not as many insurance agencies were doing STR but not many have caught up.
