You need to have a very solid plan on getting that contract assigned to a buyer who will perform - otherwise you'll quickly burn your bridge with any agents you work with. 

Have you ever heard of bridge investing?

@Jeff Bridges Thanks for the thread that pretty much clears that up.

If the deal pencils you should be able to find a construction loan, bridge loan, ext to build.  

This is how I would categorize lenders with some basic limiting underwriting factors:Banks/credit units - long seasoning, GLOBAL DTI, rigid documentation, good/long-term ratesTier 1 private money (institutional private money) - Short seasoning, property DTI, rigid doc, good/long-term rates (not as low as banks)Tier 2 private money (institutional private money) - Short seasoning, NO DTI, asset based, moderate doc, higher long term ratesTier 3 private money (institutional private money - bridge term lending, typically interest only type loans for 12-24 months. 

They lived in U.S. and went across 1 of 7 bridges each morning to work.

Lance Wakefield and Jeff Bridges.

TK providers and investors looking to buy on an ongoing basis will not go around you, otherwise they know they have burned a bridge.

I have also had HML's offer bridge loans but we often look for low doc financing for the properties.

Here's what I think every investor should have:-A good realtor to find you properties, specializing in investment properties-A good bridge lender to finance quickly-A good crew to rehab it-A good mortgage broker and or conventional lender to finance your end user-Another realtor to help find you end users
