If you turn the deal just right and flip it in nintey to a hundred twenty days you should be able to make a hefty profit based on the numbers you described, and you keep it all.I think the most crucial part of doing these types of rehab and flip deals is to make certain that you are on very solid ground in your market value assumptions and also do a very tight estimate of the rehab costs.Some of the rehabbers we work with spend most of their time concentrating on these two areas and making sure that they have a good exit strategy.If you are comfortable with your assumptions you will make more money with a hard money lender than with private capital.

Jeff the problem with interpretations of things is you will see it one way and the government or a banking entity will see it another way.Some look at the lender taking the hit as an implied agency.So your prime fiduciary duty to the seller and then secondary to the bank.Many ways to look at it.As a licensed broker I simply do not get involved in these types of deals.The pay day does not equal the headache or the risk to the license.This is where to an investor the payday might be so large that they take the risk but to the broker/agent it's not worth it.

In California, a "professional" tenant can make life a living hell for a landlord unless they have somebody equally experienced to combat them.Never bring a knife to a gun fight.
