I know with my credit history I can get a great rate, but in order to do that I would need to have the property deeded to me.My question: In order to get the best rate should I have the deed contain only my name as the sole owner in order to get the best financing?

This means you will be required to provide tax returns, pay stubs, job history, etc.

Hi all, I am dealing with a seller (trustee/daughter) that is selling her father's house.  

Also I did not haggle with the seller, given the history.
