Quote from @Austin Farsai: I'm not familiar with your city requirements, but I assume you can register it under your personal name since that is how it is owned.

Most auctions require us to fund within 24 hours.  

(Being that most apartment building in downtown lisbon are small and only need refurbishment on the inside no structural repairs needed).Which offer incredible yields both on a rental basis or from a fix & flip perspective.In my specific case I don’t have the required funds available to enter on my own and therefore am looking for seasoned investors who would be willing to enter on a partnership or joint venture to invest (all legal, with written contracts obviously).I have seen people with no money but the right skills and connections for the job be successful at it.

@Jim Miller Lenders tightened requirements and limited products since rates went up.

I'm hoping to find a management company that works with traveling Nurses that require short term rentals.  

Additionally, the contract requires that the deed be recorded in the borrower’s name once the contract is paid in full, but it’s silent as to whether we have to record when we purchase the seller’s interest in the contract.

With that said, I have no desire to constantly kick a person when they are down. 

Check out bullet point 3 under (a) eligibility requirements which verifies that the borrower must be used for personal use and enjoyment (ie. you cannot use the property if you rent it out more than half of the year).

They may feel a sense of entitlement, and they may not even be good renters.Unless this is some unique situation like a ranch that requires special skills to maintain the property, I recommend you remove the caretaker, spruce the place up, and put it on the market at market rates.I also recommend you look for a professional property manager that can help you navigate this immediately.

I was wondering if hard money lenders or private lenders require you to be licensed as a mortgage loan Officer to find them new clients.
