Now to the craziness.We first attempted to obtain a conventional mortgage because the home was advertised as “passable” for inspection purposes.  

@Jordan MoorheadAs a Minnesota (temporarily a Wisconsinite) I've subscribed to the cabin religion my whole life and my near-retirement parents are trying to understand how to afford their own to retire with (religion makes us do crazy things ;)As near as I've been able to good naturedly guess, the cabin love is what you get when you mix the seemingly universal desire to travel with the home-body reserved demeanor of Midwesterners.

I purchased this in an attempt to pick up a property that was intentionally purchased as a rental, low price, and a condo to minimize repair work to inside the unit.

I also might be attempting to do a flip/BRRRR in Indiana before the year is done.

How/ where could I check to make sure things are smooth before attempting to bid on this potential deal?

My question is should I attempt to sign up and should I be upset because I’ve already paid for this training here today for 3 days for a couple hundred bucks already.

Hud could care less about who places your bid as long as they have an NAID numberBe advised that you are attempted in my opinion one of the most difficult transaction possible. 

If you have an evictable offense, put it back on the tenant to step up they're game and get the sibling out as opposed to their likely lame attempt of asking them. 

So I hear all the horror stories of getting a low appriasal when attempting a BRRRR deal. 

I went out and talked to the landlord when she was there recently and some guests of the tenant happened to arrive at that time and they heard what was going on and gave me the evil eye in an attempt to intimidate me as they left when the landlord told them to leave.
