Of those contingencies I listed, if it fails due to inspection or appraisal, that's my fault. 

The bank is not dumb .

@Ernesto Hernandez, I recommend contacting the local banks that are near this particular property, and preferably the smaller ones.

Many banks/substitute trustees will contract to sell the home at public auction using auction.com.After the auction, if the home doesn't sell, it will become an REO property (means bank owned) and will be listed with an agent.

Most banks want to see that the NOI is at least 1.2 to 1.3x the debt payment.   

But you’re “banking” on the future and expecting to “make” money because of that solely.

Would love to get some feedback on this strategy I just did: Instead of waiting 30-45 days to secure a regular conventional loan to purchase my rental property, I decided to get an unsecured loan from the bank instead.

I paid cash for the house (approximately $15,000) and then took out a loan from my bank for $20,000.

If you go owner occupied the bank you go with may have a renovation loan you can take out as well or you could do private lending if a renovation loan is not an option for you.

as contractors will be raking in the majority of your profits.Work slave job with W-2 documentation for 2 years to gain favor with banks.
