The seller and the sellers bank have both accepted our offer.....but you are saying that the offer is not actually accepted? 

@Scott Koppel I see that by investing $3054, your dividend increased by ~$15 - that is a return of slightly less than 6%, which may be acceptable to many investors.Instead of saying 3% fees, they say 97% of the money is invested and the rest is used for running the REIT.

Meaning will the bank accept the house hack as an income stream?

@Jay Hunt, asking about different types of loans is acceptable - we want our members informed!

Really pleasant tenant so I took a shot on accepting their two black labs.  

Is the lender eager to give up the property and how long will they take to accept the offer?

I accepted to buy it as is and pay the closing costs.

Some of that cost is also absorbed into my CapExI'm pretty sure these are all worst case numbers so at the current stage of negotiations, if I accepted, I am going to at least break even, barring no catastrophes. 

I am just got an accepted offer on my first true flip.
