You control the preparation part, and can maximize the opportunity part by being able to quickly recognize it.I'm personally working on the preparation side of things myself by reading, making connections and refining my ability to quickly analyze a deal to recognize the opportunity, when it presents. 

However, it is also key that buyers recognize the difference between minor improvements they can make later, and critical repairs than need to be made immediately.

You criticize me for using that investigative technique but fail to recognize that you are doing the same thing.Also, it's just weird that you say "your welcome" about the Fannie Mae thing. 

OPM/velocity of money is a proven method to prudently scale real estate.

(Incidentally, here at BP, we recognize this dilemma and offer to provide employer contributions either a traditional 401(k) or a Roth 401(k) in part due to this "problem" for some team members). 

Also, if your loan was conventional; Fannie Mae recognizes the legitimacy of a QC between the mortgage holders and the LLC so long as the LLC is controlled by the borrowers; If the property was owned prior to closing by a limited liability corporation (LLC) that is majority-owned or controlled by the borrower(s), the time it was held by the LLC may be counted towards meeting the borrower’s six-month ownership requirement.

Sorry I tried to add my description and apparently it didnt recognize it. 

DU recognizes it, and grants an appraisal waiver.Hope that helps.

We're running into roadblocks qualifying for conventional or FHA financing because: we're not first-time homebuyers, our income is too high to qualify for many programs, and our debt to income is too high because various programs refuse to recognize rental income if the unit hasn't been rented out for a full year (despite us having signed 1-year leases and last month + security).

I would recommend hiring a videographer with an ultra wide angle lens, gimbal, and proven editing experience.
