I do not believe it's a pricing issue because I have priced it lower than in previous years.

Goals for the FutureI am a believer in sharing and discussing goals openly.

@John Keane A few comments:-If you aren't able to raise the funds from your closest friends and family it is unrealistic to believe you will be able to raise the money from anyone more distant to you.

This health issue ultimately led to a close family member passing and now I don't believe they have any family living in our area anymore.2.

Does the California government believe that wholesaler activity around the fires would only produce a net-negative?

This being said, I don't believe we'll be able to meet the income requirements to qualify for a conventional.This leads me to believe hard money or private lender is more the only option to get my foot in the door, use my business to make repairs at very good rates, build some equity then refi once the balloon is due. 

Save...it takes a lot more money than most new investors believe (don't drink the Kool-aid that you can get in cheap) and residing outside the US will be seen as a substantial risk to most lenders which will limit your financing options. 

When I started out, I believe that investing locally was the only option.

Hopefully in writing....I believe you have a leg to stand on here...They cannot just double the price without your approval.As has been said, contact the PM and have a heart-to-heart talk.
