The Bank that I spoke to about the Refinancing loan said Iwecould come in without waiting as soon as we are  finished with our renovation (I assume also as soon as we have it rented)  and they will only give us 70% of the appraised value ARV

Just thinking of other ways to get a little extra cash to finish deals and maximize.

The house was gutted down to the studs and needs to be finished. 

In a no asset chapter 7, that would be about three months start to finish.  

@ does not work for me ... but that must be because the page never finishes loading from overseas.

My partner graciously offered to finish this last piece so I could fly out on time – but I was responsible for the rehab, and felt responsible to ensure the entire thing was completed and done rather than leave it to my awesome partner.

They are also more likely to screw up the rehab or choose the wrong finishes for the neighborhood.

One time, my open house had finished about 30 mins earlier and I was putting the lockbox on the house when a couple pulled up.

Yes, finished with classes and now trying to wade through the bureaucracy to get a state test setup.  

If you are unable to attain your goals within a 2 hour drive of you home, then I would recommend the Mid-West for strong ROI.
