Thanks Nathan - appreciate that insight! I'll try to dig around for a comparable in Pennsylvania. 

Hello,

Recent loan estimates from my mortgage broker are now showing additional points from Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac for investment properties. I'm told it's a new policy of FNMA/FRE for investment properties with less than 30% down payment. Curious if others are seeing this? In my case it was 1.75% on a $200k loan, so an additional $3500 at closing. Not necessarily a deal breaker, but just another hurdle in a rising rate environment. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks Rich! That's helpful. Seems much more in line with what I was thinking going in...Would you be willing to share/DM me one of the contractors you've worked with? 

Thank you guys! Really appreciate the recommendations.

All - looking for a recommendation for a lawyer to draw up offering docs for a FSBO duplex in South Jersey. Thank you!!

Curious if anyone has any experience having a parking pad installed in the rear of a row home and what the costs were. Initial estimates I'm getting have been around $4-5k, which felt steep for a 10x20 or smaller space but I also know there's a lot of demand for many of the trades right now so things could be elevated. Thanks!

Quoted 4.38% on 30y/20% down in PA. Curious if anyone sees anything more competitive...

Hi Jon,

I know this post is from a number of years ago, but curious if you had any luck finding a contractor that you'd be open to recommending? 

Thanks,

Kevin

@Matt Woods - did you have any luck finding a CPA in the area? Thanks!

@Kevin Sobilo understood - thanks Kevin. That makes sense, but must be something else in this instance since it has happened a different occasions.
