Hello @Ben Brown,I strongly advise against getting a student loan to use as down payment for a house.

Even in the movie Jackie Brown, Samuel Jackson says, "Bail bondsmen are as crooked as a barrel of snakes".

Thanks @Caleb Brown, I've asked my realtor to get further information from buyer.

We also drove beaters, brown bagged our lunch and lived in a trailer park for 5 years on purpose to reduce our living expenses.  

Another story, i had a seller who finished his basement without pulling permits in Brown Deer WI and the inspector make him rip it all out...

The bigger the pay day the more likely that somebody will later appear saying that they are an heir and you never notified them of the QTA, and they want the property back.There was a case here of the widow Brown, that ended up changing the law. 

Quote from @Caleb Brown: I think it'll be hard for you to compete.

Thanks for the shoutout @Caleb Brown

Quote from @Caleb Brown: How did you calculate the nightly rate/gross income?

@Edward Brown I may have missed this....but is this for your permanent, 30 year fixed rate loan?
