I would like to have it rented by September 1st.

Finally, is there an investor here that would like to talk about that kind of partnership?  

We used a variety of places to furnish it like BidFTA, Amazon, Facebook marketplace..etc.

The only disadvantage would be that you would most likely not be able to get financing for this property, but if you have the cash to invest, it should work out very well for you. 

I was thinking having extra saved would help as well.

I've been researching and it seems like we have two options. 1) Have the seller agree to let us co-host on the listing from the closing date through the end of the year/when the future bookings end while advertising the new listing for any new bookings.

I have some experience in multi-family fix and hold but am new to new construction (ground up). 

He lives in NY but does a lot of flips in FL and has a second house there as well I believe.

Jeff is also a licensed escrow/title officer so we close many transactions as well.

Creative financing tends to be slightly more expensive than traditional but is completed a lot quicker and has many more work arounds as well as being more flexible.
