Flippable property are usually deferred maintenance / fixer/handyman specials not yet on the MLS so how to find them?

What about in  other countries is there such a thing besides the licensing body usually department or bureau??? 

So it’s not always beneficial to add everyone who will be living in the home onto the loan. usually the lender will prefer you use as few people as possible to make it work. 

These types of loans are harder to find, usually require 50%-60% down, usually higher interest rates, etc.

They'll usually automate most of the guest communication and have systems in place for screenings, bookings, contracts.

Depending on what a credit pull does or doesn't show for you, you may have to come in with an extra 5% down vs. the normal 20% down.

What types of properties do they usually handle? 

Always great to hear from a fellow Texan.When we are buying off market properties we are using some type of acquisition loan (usually Hard Money).  

Usually at my local RE meetups there are no shortage of mortgage brokers, hard money lenders and private money lenders there.Before you go out and look for deals, schedule meetings with these people and talk to them.

Some insurance companies have told me they don't insure LNC buildings cause 'replacement' wouldn't be a straightforward process, as there's usually no detailed record of such grandfathered buildings' layouts in the records to permit re-building following a fire, flood, quake, etc.Others have said at least in while securing quotes, it's a non-issue.Surely they both can't be correct!?
