But, long and short is that you would not need proof of income or a W2 for short term rehab, wholesale, and bridge loans and for some permanent financing products. 

@Mitchell LitamCongratulations, you've noticed that window replacement companies typically charge extortionate prices for their products and services.

@Gabriel Rascon How about a slow water leak from a cracked washer valve due to over tightening during the tenants installation right when you're half way through your work shift?

It was a painfully slow and convoluted process, but finally culminated in my buying the house in May of 2018, six months after I signed the purchase agreement.It took me another three months to finish the rehab and get it back to brand-new condition (See After Photos Below).

I will start with local banks in my area and see what products they have to help me and my partner jumped into the investment side of real estate. 

I started with production and worked my way to director of production managing accounts and anything else the company needed.

I'm generally pretty slow at work during the winter, and have considered trying to do a flip or BRRRRRRRR over that time to either get a lump sum of cash to roll into another property, or have something to hold longterm with some built in equity. 

In one case to produce a lot of condensation with minimal cooling and in the other case a lot of cooling and the condensation is only a by product. 

So...I also filter through a lot of this.When I do decide to post, I'm a slow reader, so I don't often jump into threads that are already super hot and popular with hundreds of responses, because I always feel obligated to read all the posts before commenting.

Make a few bucks and focus our time and effort on the product thats going to give us the greatest return.
