Interested in flipping a home that would qualify based on HERS rating + energy savings and would like to partner with a lender to market the property as eligible for EEM.

So if the buyer owns the property is he or she able to market and resell the property while making payments on the owner financing deal?

I feel like this is a good time in the market cycle to exit and diversify?

We no issues closing in an LLC, as a matter of fact most of my lenders will prefer it (assuming it is not your primary residence)Assuming it is not your primary residence, the easiest way to do this deal would be through a DSCR Loans.A DSCR Loan will use current rents or market rents if the property is vacant and personal tax return from you would NOT be required.It also referred to as a No Ratio Loan because your personal Debt To Income is not important.What is important is that the property can pay for itself.If we keep the LTV Low the rate for this loan can be better than a conventional loan.If you ARE Living in the property and you want to keep it... it would mostly depend on how motivated you are and how willing you'd be to "postpone gratification"The best bet is still a DSCR Loan.. which means you moving and renting the property out.We can bring in Asset Based Financing that can help with cash down (if you need it) or to pay cash for another property for you to reside in.Once you're moved out we can do the DSCR Loan at a 70% - 80% LTV or we can calculate a comfortable cash flow number.For example, max cash out that will give you $500 cashflow after a full PITI payment.Let's discuss more!

I sold 20 houses last year in my local market (ASHEVILLE NC).

I was following James Dainard on biggerpockets and On the Market podcast for long time I was really impressed with skills and experience and successful journey.

For example I cold call property owners for off market deals for the developers and investors I work with.

In the current high interest market, is home equity loan still reasonable?

Also looking at neighborhood trends.

Also I'd like to know more about the market in Houston if you have the time.
