@Jimmy C. there are tons of banks that will finance it, reach out to Pierce at Security Mortgage Group

Make sure to reach out to one that is an investor savvy as location is no longer an issue. 

Hello BP World,Im not sure if this is the correct location but I am just starting/working my way through my first rehab and trying to build my team.

Now you have a sample of actual timelines for your location.

High-priced metro areas are not really suitable for a repeat house hack investing strategy.Additionally, there are usually levels of location and quality within the same geographic area that can also make a big difference in the numbers.

There is also the thing of a physician loan where I wouldn't have to put a down payment on the house and secure a loan although I would want to try to aim for a fixed rate (or maybe variable since interest rates are potentially going to be cut in the future?) 

I can get it for about 145K but it needs a few things as its a 50 year old home in a great location. 

Or are you suggesting another step after I secure the place?

Purchase price: $200,000 Cash invested: $50,000 Beautiful duplex, centrally located in a super cute neighborhood.

Even with this lack of consideration on the sellers part, I feel the property is in a prime location with upside potential, however, with this behavior, it will take longer for us to turn the property.
