Not that serious @Andrew Wong, I just did some consulting for a person last summer season that owns 4 condos in the village area of la Jolla, let me tell you what we found out, Village property rents easy specially anything with walking distance, I simple Vacation Rental Sign in the building got us a lot of bookings, VRBO,AIRBNB work well with properties under $400 per night, if your property is over that maybe you want to try reaching out to other websites like Luxury Retreats.com and others, any questions feel free to reach out. 

Remember that FHA will ask for seasoned funds for your down payment and that your lender will want to see an additional 6 months of reserves in your bank account.

Now she is complaining that I am being unfair and she is not happy because Cozy drafted her account on the 30th (so to her that means she paid).Even though she is a pretty good tenant who has paid on-time, my understanding in talking with other seasoned investors is that landlords can get into trouble by making exceptions (if I were to look the other way on this). 

Hey Brendon,We have a small campground we built so hopefully I can offer a little help until others contribute.Lots of things determine the construction cost and not being from your desired location handicaps me.That being said maybe I can at least shed some light on your idea.Things that will determine actual per lot cost are power,sewer and water.1-Underground power is the way to go,more cost but more spaces because of overhead clearance restrictions.2-Available sewer also is best but septic systems work fine but cost more and chew up land area and require more long term maintenance (we have septic systems,3 spaces per system). 3- Water,there again country,or city water is best but a well and your own systems works fine also just requires more upkeep.As far as the park itself it's best to (IMO).1-set park up with three sections to accommodate different styles of campers,over night,seasonal and annual (if area warrants),all three have there pros and cons,overnight area is cheapest to construct since you'll just have bathhouse ( no septic,power or water per site). seasonal spaces will be completely developed but will rent for highest amt because it's short term (usually power is included into rate).Last is annual which again lots are fully developed but not so much in and out and consistent cash  flow,tenants put utilities in there name as they would a SFR. 

Hi John, when you go to sell on a fix and flip, most (but not all) lenders require 6 months of seasoning before they will fund the purchase.

My understanding is that I either need to A.) get a job working for someone B.) use a mortgage broker or C.) team up with a partner and become seasoned for two years.I'm curious to what everyone on here thinks as to what my options and next steps are with this situation.

Does anybody know of someone who offers a cash out refinance on a owner occupied property w/o seasoning period.The property is in Georgia. 

Besides, in some areas of the country, the market is very seasonal and/or can turn on a dime and all of a sudden 4-5 months after you bought and ready to sell, the ARV is lower.

What I do when banks say noI look for another lending institutionthere are many ways to make a deal happen and for you to get your money back outremember when the bank says you have to get the money from a family member there is a little clause they aren't telling you about it is calledseasoningthat means the money you put in the bank has to season or sit in there institution for a number of monthsthis can really make a mess out of a dealthe numbers look good I would look for another avenue to wrap up the dealenjoy

Knowing who is funding projects helps you understand where the big players think the market is going.
