Quote from @Brandon Lee: When you evaluate lenders or funding partners, what’s most important to you — speed, flexibility, or experience with your type of deal?

What type of property insurance do I need?

But first you need to decide a few things: 1) What type of investing do you want to do STRs, long-term residential rentals, syndication, or flipping? 

Because the Property Class dictates the Class of the tenant pool that the property will attract.The Tenant Class greatly impacts rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.Both Property Class and Tenant Class will affect what type of contractors, handymen and property management companies you should target and be willing to deal with a property.The Property Class will also impact the maintenance & renovations you do to, “Maintain to the Neighborhood”.Why is that important?

Not asking for specifics, but generally speaking —Which regions or types of neighborhoods are you seeing the best spreads for flips or rentals?

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Building an investor list is all about consistent deal flow and clear criteria, so sharing the types of properties you’ll be sourcing and the areas you cover will help people plug in quickly.

So we work backwards from there to determine the price you could pay (which is also largely dependent on the loan type and terms). 

What type of home insurance do we need?

It is possibly a bank overlay that you are running into where the bank will not allow this type of loan to close like this.
