About 1350 addresses that had the following criteria 45+ years old, 40 to 100 percent equity, SFR, owner and absentee occupied, and was purchased no earlier then 3 years prior.

Based on what I figure we would be at about a 55%/45% split.

Most lenders are going to take 30-45 days to close a loan, so unless you can get the seller to agree to such an extension then you are probably stuck hoping that this lender pulls through.One thing to keep in mind is that loan officers are just salespeople and are generally not well paid.  

Since you allow yourself 30-45 days to find a buyer if you cant find a buyer within that timeframe, you can walk away from the deal.

Genuinely looks like the developer ran out of money.It *IS* an upscale subdivision, though: the home look like 4-5 bed, possibly 2.5 or more baths, easily 3000+ sq ft. 

Loans close in about 45 days, if using rehab loan more time is needed most likely.

That is about a 45 min. drive. 

The meeting starts at 6:00 PM.You can arrive at any time but from 6:00 - 6:45 PM they'll have a Q&A which is very helpful for newbies.

For a bread-and-butter house, duplex or triplex building, 37.5 to 45 percent is probably a good estimate.

Currently 45 and looking to retire comfortably.
