Essentially you are helping out with miscellaneous errands and learning in the process.IMHO, It is very unlikely that you will find an investor to fund your deal if you have never done a rehab and do not have any of your own funds in the deal.I am not trying to rain on your parade but just want to prepare you for some of the challenges of getting started with no funds and no experience.Keep asking questions and you will find great assistance right here.

Ask if you can assist them for FREE in anyway.Believe me someone will take the bait, there is much to do in RE business:Marketing,networking,taking pics of property,meeting buyers,meeting sellers,organizing/interviewing contractors,getting paper work signed,title companies,attorneys..etcLet them know you are learning the business and would be open to mentorship.

There are always big and small players there.

There are not many lenders in my area that lend on spec builds unless you are a big player and I am not.

I was looking into the fha loan and receive my free down payment assistance and since MIP is through the life of the loan thinking about refinance into conventional when I can.

However, my father is an attorney and would assist me through the process for free.The purchase agreement states:"If you wish to close through your selected attorney, please be advised that seller will pay the title insurance costs if you agree to use the Seller Selected Title Provider."

I am still green as an investor, but I know DC's different neighborhoods pretty well and may be of some assistance in learning the landscape.
