A massive security deposit and a large upcharge on the rental rate just to consider it.

The commercial loan options mentioned by others would provide you with a bundle of cash secured by the properties.

There are a lot of wholesalers out there, but if you can learn to identify and secure a good deal under the right terms you should be able to turn it over to an investor for a nominal fee.

Had to chase the definition to understand this one:http://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/contractfordifferences.as:- DEFINITION of 'Contract For Differences - CFD'An arrangement made in a futures contract whereby differences in settlement are made through cash payments, rather than the delivery of physical goods or securities.

Take pictures of the condition of the rental; typically 50 to 100 pictures to later download on my home computer as evidence for justifying not returning the security deposit/suing the tenant.2.

However, two of their law cases settled and they would be able to pay 4 months upfront in addition to first and security.

Its simply like a whole separate loan and I'm using the equity in the home to secure it, kind of like using it as collateral?  

Hello, @Anthony Lee.I recommend that you reach out to Steve Bighaus of Security National Mortgage Company.  

I can't offer advice on how to secure the loan, but I would say if you don't even know what your 1.5 year plan is, I'd recommend a little more thinking about it prior to acting...

Was going through a refi on a condo and nearly right at the end I was told I could not refi due to the fact that my condo was part of a community that was a mix between apartments and condominium's and that due to the "shared" amenity areas (pool, gym, clubhouse, etc.) that I would not be able to secure a loan.
