Extremely communicative and Bob spent time over multiple phone calls answering specific questions I had concerning the deal.

The best banks that I have found based on your main concerns are smaller, regional, community sized banks.

@Sofia De Santos Tavarez if you haven't already, have the property professionally inspected.This should catch MOST of the structural, health & code issues - but not all.

Therefore the concern I have is people are giving them their money and they are giving dated and unrealistic advice.

Hi Jessica, have you called his office to voice your concerns?

The problem (as you have cited) is trying to understand what you need (you don't know what you don't know), where to get it, qualifying its source(s), and the validity and usefulness of all that.Pardon me if I've gone into this too much, but I meet many people with the same concerns that you are voicing and this is offered, as much as possible in direct response to your post.Please feel free to contact me if you have any comments or questions. 

We now have enough manpower to provide more attention to our clients if they have questions, concerns, or issues along the way.

It could certainly be a concern - but depends on a lot of factors - are you looking multi or SFR? 

Unit 3 - mid-term rental (this would be best for the most private unit as most mid-term renters are more concerned with privacy and creature comforts than amenities)4.

If there is "still contamination" at any level, I would be concerned about that and pass on the deal no matter what.
