I have the option to invest $40K of my savings into the project and potentially see a modest return (few hundred dollars a month), but I’m unsure if it’s the best use of my funds.

We do invite you to review your reservation confirmation email sent on 8/27/2024 that does outline all processes and procedures as well as what consumables are included. 

First, I went to the lender and asked if we could do a loan modification instead of me shopping around for a new loan that might not be with them at a lower rate and for a modest processing fee they did that.

go to her broker, make it super difficult to work with. go after her license, go after everything and say all you want is a release. you are a consumer. the law is pretty clear. look up procuring cause. buy a different floorplan of the same house int he same neighborhood without those addresses and you'll get around it 

Most consumer loans do require this, but investor loans vary more on this point. 2.

Due to my background in consumer lending, I am highly skeptical of paystubs and other address verification due to the widely available websites that are out there to generate forms relatively easily... so I like to verify the information by contacting the listed employer using their listed number on Google to avoid possibly calling a friend etc. 

Despite its modest price, the property was ideal for a quick turnaround.

Consider the Costs and Benefits: Legal action can be costly and time-consuming, so it’s important to weigh the potential outcomes against the costs involved.

(You give people a chance to buy a MF with 5% down and then you crush them with the rate...)Living in your own investment will be a valuable experience as your management is right there, and addressing issues is not as time consuming.

That was one of the most difficult and time consuming things when I was managing my own properties.
