I’m comfortable with my tenant selection but want to do this both for due diligence and for practice.5.

You want to be able to select who rents your house and how do you know the person they sublet to will pay the rent and take care of the place?

They would likely want a new appraisal but some will accept an appraisal transfer.Check in with @Joseph Chiofalo they have a wide range of no ratio programs..

It is common to see wide differences between the FMV and taxable value in rapidly appreciating markets.

Selecting the right lender, this can get done in about 6-8 weeks, if not earlier. 

My suggestion would be to select someone with the most forum posts or most reviews.

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

It looks a bit like a stacked double wide. it is going to need some updating.

But you can't take 0.033% of the results of an experiment that sway one way, and ignore the other 96.67% that sway the OTHER way and selectively pick the 0.033% as the winner and ignore the 96.67% just because you like that outcome.That's ridiculous!!

@Caroline PowellAnother thing .... make certain your selected contractor is very well versed on 203k's.
