Or does this not matter because of their code of ethics?

Further, we are bombarded by not so ethical or sound propositions on this site on a daily basis.

He smugly disguised it as an ethical way to compensate a seller in a short sale.I will now stop my grandstanding on the subject but I hope you and anyone else reading this, will see my point.....The homeowner cannot profit from a short sale on the HUD-1 or under the table or anywhere else.

I figure you would understand about dealing with ugly people given some of your stories plus your work ethic.

If you have good work ethic and prove what you're made of.. usually it will change.

Also, I think a strong trait to look for is ethical practices and philosophy.

I have been impressed by the apparent ethical dealings most of the members seem to have.

I think your Mortgage Broker got his training in 2005 and hasn't kept up with his required ethics training since.He is suggesting that the underwriter won't notice and approve the loan and he is probably correct.

Sell them and spend probably a grand for the requirements to do it right or break the law, dealing as some scum bag, or rent it and make more ethically. :)

I have requirements as well, must have a decent job or ability to at least have some skin and costs, must begin with the basics of RE, not guru strategies, demonstrate the ability to grasp conceptual ideas as well as technical matters and lastly, must have an ethical attitude.
