Even though interest rates and terms won't be as desirable as conventional, you'll have an easier time getting pre-approved.

@Ben Azubuike it's technically too late to add anything else if you've already signed a purchase contract.You can try to negotiate with the seller for review of:LeaseRent LedgerTenant approval criteriaAt closing you also want acceptable copies of tenant's: DL, SSN, paystub, bank statement, phone & email.

Then, we can continue.For now, I've proven my case so many times over even Hillary's opponents would approve.

@Jessica Heller- contact  several  lenders on the  same  day - provide them  with the  same criteria -  get  some  quotes and ask the  questions you have  ...compare the date and the feedback received and then make a  decison on  starting the pre approval process 

If they're fighting, that isn't your problem.Showings:Because properties are occupied, we've moved to only showing a property to someone with an approved application.

I got lucky that the tenant wanted a house in my neighborhood to keep kids close to their schoolsHouse was listed for 1750, they offered 2250 but I declined , so they offered $3k, ended up renting the house for $3250 ($250 pet rent) per month, for 3 month, open to extension if needed.I met the tenant and did the background check on them, I felt comfortable renting to them THD takes time with approving the property, but they were quick to approve the lease, and they sent me the checks the next day after lease signingMy house is not furnished, and they were ok with that , they actually work with a company that provides furniture for the tenant, and they coordinate the delivery and setup of furniture on the lease start dateOverall I like the experience working with them , but hey today is day #1 (out of a possible 3 months), so I will update this post if anything wrong happens or if I notice any red flags

@Davin Manfredi first, regardless of what you do make sure you ask how they are going to run a vent and let them know you have to approve of the work that's going to be done and do quality control afterward.

My townhome development in WA was under 200k for 18-units to get full building and civil permits.So hypothetically, if you think it's worth 100k per door at preliminary approval before utilities and improvements maybe it'd be worth paying 50-60k per lot.

By renovating the entire house, gutting everything, fully renovating the pool, and with approved ADU plans.

The more you show on your paystubs, the more lenders will approve you to borrow and the faster your savings will grow.
