A nice house is situated in a nice neighborhood, and the neighbors have certain expectations that most people end up conforming to.

Did anyone came across a situation when a Residential Multi Family 2-4 units, was appraised with the Cap rate approached and had this accepted as conforming, Fannie Mae loan by lender? 

I own several homes in mine and my wife's personal name that have conforming loans, but many more in LLCs with commercial loans.

We have a very rigid policy when it comes to placement and screening, it ensures that we follow all the rules every time equally with every potential candidate, discpline... the short answer is, if you feel this is a "qualified" situation for your business then pursue it, if you feel the decision is not emotional, not monetary and conforms to your policy....... you have your answer

Hi all,First post here and I couldn’t find it answered anywhere else - I have a 2-unit in Portland Maine built in 1920 and for the first time this year the fire safety inspector measured my upstairs bedroom windows and found neither of them conformed to existing egress window standards.

You need to first make sure that the properties are conforming so you do not run into any complications when it is re-assessed by the assessor after the sale.Assuming no problems here.

Melissa, for some reason I just dont feel conformable putting a lock on the attic.

These are considered non-conforming and don't qualify for FHA financing.

It was all in complete conformance with current zoning.

However, I do avoid non-conforming properties (those which standout in the neighborhood for reasons such as size, age, use, etc) because they can be much more difficult to analyze and harder to sell.
