However, products and bank appetite changes frequently, so it's worth it to call every single one.If you call enough of these, you *should* find an investor-friendly bank that "gets it" and makes purchase+rehab loans for 75 to 80% LTV, with quick closes and instant-issued pre-approval letters to back your offers, at a very reasonable level of closing costs and a good personal relationship with a local banker who can make decisions.I was just hooking up with a bank in my area who does the following:1yr ARM at 3.99% fixed for 1 year3yr ARM at 4.99% fixed for 3 yearsNo points and no prepayment fees30 year amort. schedule and final maturityAbout $500 in total feesRehab portion released as work is completedIf you decided to keep the property, the floating rate terms (after the 1yr and 3yr periods) would be 1yr Tsy+375, w/ 2% annual change cap, 6% lifetime change capNo balloon, straight 30-year amort.Once you have a little more capital, you'll likely want to make cash offers to improve your negotiating stance, so you'll want to make sure that that the bank will come right in behind you after the close, do a cash out refi and fund your rehab at the same 75-80%.

I have a specific deal going, and my assignment fee will only be $5,000 so it's not excessive, and the retail buyers would be getting a house with at least $10K of equity in it, so I know there won't be appraisal problems.If a simple Assignment of Contract will not work, has anyone ever heard of filing an Affadavit (or Memorandum) of Contract with the local county clerk, and then invoicing the seller for "Release of Equitable Interest" or "Release of Contract"?
