I would like to be able to find more wholesale deals, flips, and build a buyers list that we either help them find investment properties or people that want us to find them a home and make it into their dream home (property brothers style).  

Thus, allowing you to take home profits now and let your future appreciation pay the bill.If you are interested in learning more about this style of property management please reach out and I would be happy to discuss! 

Also I don’t wouldn’t be opposed to house hacking, except I already own a loft style condo in a good area that is my primary residence.

Or should it be an investor style postcard from the very beginning?

So are there any specific pros/cons to home style vs choice renovation?

This style approach seems to be a better alignment of interests than what many other syndicators do which makes for very conservative underwriting.

Speaking as a lender (not investor) with some experience in small balance commercial lending, I can tell you that it is likely going to be tough to find financing most likely as a lot of commercial lenders tend to stay away from churches, although could be more favorable if the building is true retail/office rather than a structure built specifically in the style of a traditional church (i.e. hard to transition to other tenants if needed)

I just finished a medium style rehab and worked with a great GC.

There are still a few good resources for Log Cabins or Off-Grid style properties in remote areas as well.  

Sounds like there was not a fit in terms of style .. like a Wall Street type trying to hang out with a SoCal surfer type.
