Conventional financing isn't available to heavily leveraged flippers as the loans aren't profitable. They usually use non-conventional loans with higher interest rates.

Now, they could re-finance the property into a conventional rental property but none of them can afford to do it for all of their properties. Flippers tend to do 4-5 at a time, not just one.
