@Kristi Tietz Even if you charged some ridiculous amount of points I can't see how this would be a good risk vs. reward ratio for you. 

@Jarrett FogelmanSolar is only worth it if your area has ridiculous SREC credits so system pays for itself in several years, for example Washington DC has high electric bills and great credits so the payback is 3-5 years.

It's hard to walk some days now, there are other days when the pain is ridiculous, but so far, I've managed to keep the walking up.

Many sellers asking ridiculously high prices to see who will bite.

This just seems a ridiculous amount of money & a crazy complex amount of paperwork that I have regrettably signed up for ....Any advice or experience in this area would be extremely helpful !

Am I being ridiculous?

And you do not somehow 'know" our guidelines that the property and valuation is somehow eligible - thats not a all how lending works.It is also ridiculous that you are claiming somehow that we are "buying facebook reviews" then citing scam bitcoin reviews as fake (why would we buy these spam comment reviews).Stop embarrassing yourself - and again, if you keep doing this publicly we will be forced to take action

I am not married to either structure and the cost, as mentioned in my original post, is ridiculous.
