@Amon PlylerYou could add him to the deed of the properties after settlement (or possibly before if the bank doesn't need his qualifications), and decide on what percentage of ownership each of you have that you feel fit.And if you feel like you need more than that, you can form an LLC together with an operating agreement - which you can get really specific with if you choose (roles, responsibilities, compensation, buy/sale agreement etc).

You should have no problem meeting most qualifications.

On the other hand, if a spouse actually meets the qualifications for being a RE professional (meticulous documentation) and you have W2 income, you may be in the clear. 

Can you explain the qualifications/benefits for the 203k loan?

I include some of the major qualification requirements, which is typically sufficient and scares off a lot of people that aren't serious / qualified.

My goal is to create more real estate transactions especially through this "mortgage crisis time" where many people have trouble selling or buying their homes because of their mortgage qualification.

If it's a larger organization, feel free to inquire about their different staff qualifications.2.

I have been looking at some REO listings, and I have run across a few that state that pre-qualification is required with preferred lender, even for cash buyers.

The exemptions are there, but they are specific in qualification.

Hey Nick, Our qualifications are very similar to @John Warren and like John said, you will refine your criteria overtime.
