You should be able to find a lender, it might take a few calls and possibly a wasted appraisal fee or two.

You can sue whomever you want, but I personally think you are wasting your time. http://wiseinsurancegroup.com/impact-a-claim-has-on-a-texas-home-insurance-policy/

Though you'd perhaps have to pay about $27k in negative cash flow worst case over the next 9 years ($250/month neg. cash flow x 12 months x 9 years), this money isn't wasted - a large majority of it is paying down what's left on your mortgage on an income producing asset.

Look under the education section above it is loaded with great items. 

Then on the other hand, you'll have almost as many people tell you that it's impossible, dangerous, a waste of time, and give plenty of reasons why.

Seems like a waste of everyone's time to report a few bucks, but the government lives off wasted time.

Thanks to all those who responded and offered to help, but I don't want to waste anyone's time further at this point.

A few heavy hitters in the wholesaling arena have suggested a way to initially build some capital is to establish relationships with other wholesalers that have deals but may not have a load of cash buyers, then connect them with cash buyers for a small markup.Is this a viable approach?

@Alexander Price  I am loading up on lots currently.  

I still obviously have a lot to learn, but I am ready to start networking hopefully without wasting anyone's time.
