I have found a great fixer upper that I believe will cash flow well but, do lenders frown upon adding the cost of repairs to a mortgage loan?

After talking with an attorney on if repair was responsibility of lower residence or my residence, knowing it was builder's fault but would be difficult/useless to try to get them to fix it 15 years later, we fixed the retaining wall for $9K. 

*DOM Below 60 days*Purchase price up to $150k*ARV's within $200k and below $300k* Repairs needed at or about low to mid level"MY question is, what does this buyer mean by stating "Repairs needed at or about low to mid level".

With that knowledge, I was able to confidently invest in a SFH that only needed minor repairs to become rentable, to gain immediate cash flow, as I waited for the market to appreciate.The goal was to buy and sell within one year.Breakdown: Purchase date: 6/30/2017 Listed: $60,000 Under Contract (as the Buyer): $55,000 Acquisition Price: $46,250 Renovation Cost: $1,955 Total investment: $48,205 Ten months after the purchase, we are under contract on the selling side at $65,000.

Just ask the lenders if you can buy with cash and get your cash back out after the repair work is completed. 

Both the driveway and back patio are concrete pads that are cracked and broken (beyond repair).

So mom's house has 43k of debt on it, you plan on doing a cash out refi to 70k, using the net 27k as repairs on the house and possibly saving some of that money.

The insurance company simply said “once it falls, file a claim and we will pay for the repairs”.  

Are they also "reserving" monies for future major repairs?
