I will be taking y'alls advise and implementing it into my plan, again, thank you!

So a few years ago I implemented a fail safe system that guarantees my time is never wasted.I shoot a detailed video of each of my homes inside and out.  

I was originally opposed to the use of a hard money lender because rates can be so high, but seeing examples of ways to implement it makes sense and I wish I payed more attention when reading/hearing about them.

The way he implements the lease option is more closely related to the flip than buy and hold.

Lenders that sell their loans today are also taking part in what they call CMBS 2.0 (post 2007 underwriting criteria, where it is very common to see certain terms and conditions implemented for the additional security of the bondholders, and the increased risk of the Borrower (you)).The one thing that I see over and over – even with some of the biggest players in the market, is this: Investors spend a lot of time and attention on the due diligence of the property, economics affecting property performance, property management, repositioning, and on closing the loan - - and NOT AS MUCH ATTENTION IS USED TO PREPARE FOR THIS ENTRY INTO THE FINANCIAL MARKETS, (WHERE THEY WILL BE RESIDING FOR UP TO TEN YEARS) AND HOW IT CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT THEIR RETURNS.

And one 30 second piece of info she shared with me opened up a new opportunity for me that I will be able to implement with my upcoming home purchase. 

I don't belong to David Lindahl's organization and have no ties to them.I would also agree that your PM is soooooooooooo important to implement your plan. 

I am looking to implement a buy and hold strategy for sfh with good cash flow and appreciation. 

hi Account Closed is this a strategy you've been implementing?

So the properties that this will work on are properties that can be flipped...but instead of selling at the end, you are holding the property.Not all properties, not all locations are conducive to flipping though, and that is where people trying to implement this strategy, or who try to flip often run into a brick wall.Locate the locations where flipping works....to do this, simply look and see where there are tons of flips going on.
