Your response really helped me understand the key aspects of short sales, especially regarding title issues, lender valuation, and inspections.I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your expertise!

We have an early termination setup that we use to avoid these kinds of issues.

as a result I switched to a new company, and I will have to adjust it again to a landlord policy that comes with a slightly higher price tag when I move out. 

Would ownership by a SC entity resolve this issue?

Next year did the same with the remaining on the sand red tagged at 50%.  

This also begins YOUR title seasoning, so that when you're ready to take out a traditional mortgage, you can refinance and pay off the seller without a title seasoning issue. you can buy title insurance from the title company at closing. this is a good idea.
