That information was stated to establish what I thought is a relevant trend to the discussion that inevitably follows it.

First of all, what a great problem to have!  

I've heard many places have desk fees or training cost, and there seem to be tools on the market commonly in use (Crexi, Costar, Buildout, etc), that make commercial real estate information more accessible than it normally would be.

Is this not what this website is?

Your contractor should provide you with a schedule, they should provide frequent updates, they should keep you informed on delays.

Great questions—buying in an AE flood zone definitely comes with risks, but it can also be an opportunity if you analyze the numbers, insurance costs, and future resale potential carefully.

There are only 3 reviews on their website which are all extremely generic and I think aren't real.  

Just started using https://www.turbotenant.com/ it gives you a focal point to house documents, gives you a credit report and some other things but it's still your decision to make with the collected information. 

There are some great suggestions here on down payment, interest rate, servicing, and underwriting the borrower.  

This is a great relief.
