In value-add deals, typically you are looking at ability to move yield (going in cap rate vs stabilized yield, and making sure that delta is large enough), IRR, equity multiple on deal, and maybe average cash on cash over hold period.  

But, in the market conditions during my period of getting to $25K and then to $100K, I found this to be true. 

Hi, I’ve been listening to the Bigger Pockets Podcast, reading their books, watching the YouTube videos and periodically browsing the forum from time to time. 

I understand there is no seasoning period, but does that mean that you also do not have any equity in the home after the cash is taken back out of the home with delayed financing?

MTM is the favorite, period.  

I made requests to the seller under our DD period and they flat out refused everything, even safety issues.

@Prithvi Sri, typically the holding periods are tacked together. 

And depending on the grace period before a lender allows you to refinance out, you can repeat the process every 3 to 6 months.

If you plan to live there for an extended period of time and it would lower your current cost of living that would be an improvement, but this would be a negative cashflow investment and I'd personally pass.
