I have a certain ratio per100 headcount (not households, not age, not sex) I use when decidingto buy or build in a town.

Buying in Austin?

I have the option to buy a 1,300-sqft 3-bed, 1.5-bath house in South End neighborhood of Stamford, CT, from a family member before it goes on the market.

It might just make more sense to buy another property and move on.

Especially in today's high interest rate environment, a low income buyer is usually going to be better off renting than buying.

Sounds like this is a private money lender or a hard money lender.If you are getting funds from another source and relying on that to close, you should not put in the purchase agreement that you are buying with cash.
