These may be the easiest because if they are new constructions or full gut rehabs, you can see what the final product value is, and what these developers are buying at.It would be a good skillset to have to actually understand renovation and build cost. 

We paid this guy $12,000 in August and he was able to do some demolition but according to him, his crew got arrested and he had other projects at the same time and he took about 2 months to finally reply to us and tell us he would finish the demolition and install a new roof (which was the quote he gave us for those 2 things).

You can also look at creative financing/subto or owner finance as an option and finally there are DSCR options that will allow you to go up to 85% of purchase (but there is a fairly severe interest rate penalty), so I'd recommend staying in the 70-80% range.
