Anyone have a good lender who can position a 30Y conventional as a cash offer?

This isn't something a lender can really do for you. What you should do is just waive your financing contingency so that your offer is just as good as a cash offer.

Not really a good idea to lie on your contract. Unless you can get a bank to give you a revolving line of credit and you purchase with funds available, this isn’t possible.

^ that's what I do. Happy to provide additional details. Here's a thread where I talk about it. https://joinfishbowl.com/post_17asoxo6ee

Check OwnUp. In select states, they offer the power buyer program. https://www.powerbuyer.co

Actually, some lenders offer similar. Like New American funding offered me that they will make the cash offer and then I will have 30 days to close with them, with whatever % of loan I take as in conventional loan. To do this they will charge a 1.25% fees of the purchase price. This allows you to be a strong buyer in bidding war situations.

That 1.25% fees is by the lender, I’m not sure how, what you mean by including in the offer. It’s a cash offer to the seller (however it’s lender paying all cash vs you).
