He or she will tell you exactly how much they can finance based on the current interest rate and the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) that they need (typically 1.15).

Before starting my abatement firm I owned a testing company, which provided the analysis & narrative reports, such as the one which contained the lab results you referred to.A large factor in "what to do with it" is based on what your intentions are with the property. 

Hi Robert, I operate out of the Tampa area but would be happy to refer you to an experienced realtor in North Florida.

One rule of thumb that I have learned from hanging around a very experienced lender is that portfolio loans are typically not the right product unless you are getting more than 10 properties.

If you've directly worked with and closed a wholesale deal in CT and found anyone who you would like to refer, please let me know.  

I can refer you a local broker with Keller Williams Pm me if interested

If there is significant damage typically the insurance company does not cut a check until after the repairs are done - so in most instances if the house had $50k in damage the insurance company does not cut them a check without confirming the repairs were done.
