Long term leases on the books carry much more weight with lenders.

If they gave you the scope of work, I would certainly not hold a lot of weight to it based on their above described failures.

The individuals from these firms that speak to the tenants do not threaten, however their size (6'5" or more) and weight (300 pounds plus), facial scars, tatoos and overall persona convince all but the extremely stupid that leaving is a good idea.

Bank statements might carry more weight than a statement from an accountant.

Now, a good broker is worth their weight in gold as they will shop for you, make all the calls for you, walk you through the process, etc. 

The average bid at last year's sale was only 2.07% with a weighted average of less than 1%.First timer mistakes include:Not knowing what you are biding on, buying someone's open, not completing your 22/5 notice properly...

They do look at your credit worthiness and the deal, but a lot of weight gets put on the quality of the deal.

In my case I have very old weighted wooden windows, the contractor I talked to said they are the easiest to replace. 

And the entire weight of this issue does not fall on you.

I might need to consider a weight limit for guests!
