owner occupant certification
I bid on a REO property about 3 weeks ago, and never had to sign an owner occupant certification. However, I plan to put an offer in Monday on another property, and it is included in the information packet. I have done past searches here on BP, but don't see anything real recent on this issue. If I don't sign and claim to be an investor, will my offer be automatically rejected? How else can I get around holding this house for 12 months before reselling?
