Hey there,I would love to see photos if you have them ready.

(And, with AI now, what lender accepts photos?)

Be ready with documentationAny lender will want:• your scope of work• before/after photos• receipts for work already done• remaining budget• exit planThe cleaner your package, the faster someone will step in.

You get verified photos, disclosures, and fewer surprises with titles or liens.

Hello Melissa,If you haven't already done so, invest in professional photos/videos.

For some reason I can't get any photos to upload in this thread, sorry!

She had promised professional photos and a listing within two days but only updated pictures after 35 days—and that too after I warned her about termination.

If a lender takes 10 days to approve a draw or can’t fund on the timeline your contractor needs, you’re basically financing delays, interest, and change orders.My best results have come from working with lenders who:• approve draws in 24–48 hours• let you submit photos/videos instead of waiting for an inspector• understand ARV-based lending• and don’t nickel-and-dime every line itemA cheap lender who slows you down is more expensive than a slightly higher-rate lender who lets you move fast.

You should have a local property manager to handle people, a reliable handyman on call for problems, and a quarterly photo and inspection routine for peace of mind. 

Maybe edit the title of this post to attract local agents.And maybe try out the deal calculators on this platform, I believe you can analyze 3 deals for free -you didn't provide any numbers here for us to really chime in.It doesn't sound like this is your first cruise so I'm assuming you have a team assembled and cash reserves in place to cover vacancy/cap x, and repairs etc..I wouldn't kill myself to find a cash flowing deal at the moment - those are challenging right now, but I would more so strive for something that allows you to break even.
