We are in shortage for these guys here in Houston...

It's not like there's a shortage of deals out there.As for the wholesaler being better.

.* Hire a lawyer and have them inform the bank that you need to be made whole by the bank paying for the shortage to get the pre-approved work completed.* Ask the lawyer to have the bank turn over their decision documents on why your selected contractor for denied and the other one approved.* Also ask the lawyer to have the bank disclose any pre-existing relationship with the bank and/or its employees.* File a complaint with CFBP.* File a complaint with Fannie MaeHope this get fixed for you.

When the current lease is up, you have something to either negotiate when you increase the rent or create an additional fee or pass thru cost equal to or greater than the cumulative  rent shortage + increase. 

Welcome @Jack NelsenThere is always deals to be had and no shortage of people chasing them here in the Twin Cities.

That's because they almost always get this wrong when the loan is originated and it takes a few years of adjustments to stablize them.When they do that analysis, they may want an immediate payment of a shortage, may send you a check if there's an overage, or they may adjust your payment. 

There has always been a shortage of great deals up here because of smaller inventory and the insulated nature of the community (everyone is one degree of separation from a real estate professional).  

However, I have found plenty of good neighborhoods in the 70s range, where the walkscore is slightly lower not due to any inherent flaw in the neighborhood (such as poor street layout), but rather due to a shortage of nearby walkable destinations.

Maybe it's more a desert thing, but there is no shortage of weird MH add ons here.

@Ericka Grant I don't think the BP moderators will let me do that wthout having a fit.There are no shortage of HML's in CA; I'd presume the same is true in your area?
