I have a client at the moment that is in the process of purchasing an investment property.  Closing should happen in a week or two and he will be ready to re-market the property in mid-January.  He needs to sell the property quickly, so we are trying to find alternatives to avoid lender regulations that properties must be held for 90 days or longer before you can have a contract on it.  Are there any lenders that are offering VA loans or conventional loans that are not requiring the 90 day hold time?  Has anyone had experience with seller financing and then selling the note?  Is that worth it?  At the price that he is offering it, I don't think he will have a problem finding a buyer so if anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Luisa, all FHA and VA loans are subject to HUD guidelines, no way around it that I am aware of.  (I looked in to this recently for a client and was told no no no)

Also, be aware that between 90 & 180 days a 2nd appraisel will probably be necessary so talk to your investor about that added expense (the buyer cannot pay for it as far as I know.)

Use seller financing or other private funds.  Tell the private fund investor the situation.  I need to borrow funds for 90 days, pay them a return on their investment then refi.  Fairly simple.  Write up a prommisory note and a mortgage and you are good to go.

His options are seller financing or to hold the property for 90 days if he doesnt have the funds to hold the property for that long or wont make money maybe it's not a good deal.

Hi Luisa,

Nice problem to have.... Ask your investment title person about the term "WRAP"

Looks like the other comments have covered the options I know of.  Lenders just don't seem to want short or long term investors.  We really need long term investors.  People who rent do need a place to live..

the only way to do that is to jump the title, but I am almost certain that is not legal...that is a problem for many investors who want to flip properties...
