Part of the puzzle is that we have not sold our current home - and would need a place to live in the interim while remodeling...I have already been investigating loan programs, local banks (fnbalaska.com) offer a 2-close construction/remodel to long term option that is costly, but works (I used it for a 2004 house to tri-plex and short-plat option).

I just joined this group and would like to get some follow ups to those you who bought Bill Vaughn's program a couple of years ago.Any success stories?

I see many sites have loan programs titled "FixNFlip". 

For salesperson license, most use online programs like Allied and many others.

Hello All,I'm very interested in taking advantage of Freddie Mac's Home Possible program in order to purchase a multifamily 2-4 unit property.

What is the rundown on clever investors programs

I would like to explore some Crowdfunding programs that may be the right fit for us.Thanks in advanceSerena

there are some programs  for bad credit if one intents to be an owner occupant for at least a year.

It is certainly a significant number both on the front end of borrowing and on the refi end as well (especially if you end up doing a long term refi with a company like LimaOne's rental30 program and there are many others out there as well) - definitely make sure to take all of those into account when running your numbers!  

Of course this would all be based on qualifying for the programs.
