Mortgage company wouldn't allow it and you'd have to pay through the nose to get someone to do it while under contract. 

My recommendation is to find a partner - as at 19 and with limited credit it is going to be very difficult finding financing, and if you do you are gonna pay through the nose for it.I suggest teaming up with someone who has some credit that can get some deals financed.

My best recommendations to folks looking to purchase locally is to take advantage of the ability to put your eyes, ears, and nose on any investment properties and look for issues that are going to be problems for tenants down the road.

Being on the nose is an anomaly, but it seems that my estimations are really far off.What I was using was 70% ARV - repairs with a repair estimate .

For first flip, some may go as low as 10% down but you are gonna pay through the nose.

And to rub salt in their elder, richer, citizens look down their noses and mock them.   50 acres of oceanfront land, lol?.....

Therefore, if you own two abutting lots, and one or both are undeveloped, to safeguard against Merger ordinances combining your lots under your nose you should make sure that the lots are owned in different ownership.

If so, your success story would be great to hear in this moment. some lenders go down to 620 but you are gonna pay through the nose.

I have spent my life climbing the coorperate ladder, keeping my nose down, and grinding with strong work ethic. 

But yes people out there are cheap and are cutting off their nose to spite their face.
