Hey guys this is my first time posting.

I'm basically looking for financing to buy my first SFH here in Southwest Florida. Essentially, I've been pre-approved by several lenders until they find out one thing, then t...

I have clients who bought pre sale, 20% down, but now can't qualify for the mortgage as completion approaches (they came to me after buying and we will make it happen, but they were close to assigning) and with the uncertainty, private investors aren't as willing to lend, even with solid equity in the home, not to mention the private lenders are drying up as they did a lot of lending on the private builds that were booming. 

If i quit my job I will not have lending.  

The problem with buying from a wholesaler is that no lender (even portfolio lenders) will lend on an assignment contract.

I've looked at schools like Texas Institute of Real Estate, Allied School, and Kaplan. 

My name is Alvin Aquino,I am residential real estate investor, I tried working hard to know all what i need to avoid mistakes, being very extra careful, by doing my due diligence, planning ahead, as a result of this endeavor, I felt i wanted to full proof investment due to economic situation, so we diversified into commercial retail business with the family.I currently own a townhouse, a rental property that pays the mortgage on my current home in full, and I decided to built another single detached  house close to the church which the family really like, the condition to the lender is to sale my current home, but now we decided not to sale instead rent it out.I am seeking advice and direction on which financial institution to go or a way not to sale my current house instead have it rented to create cash flow and appreciation of the house.

@Michael Rothenberg check with local/regional banks in your area with a commercial lending department.

The credit unions pay attention when they see this type of cash flowing through your accounts and this is how to kindle the relationship for portfolio lending.

@Dawn TIpton you could use hard money to close this deal, do the repairs and then apply for conventional lending. 

The intentions were good and it made common sense but that seems to be lacking at the financial institution.
