I feel stupid asking this question, but I am a very frugal person and frequently my frugal-ness interferes with efficiency in my life.

But 25K / unit ARC seems to be very easily findable, while 20K ARC / unit is feasible with a little creativity and "right place right time-ness".

@Bill Plymouth I would laugh at you and tell you to piss off........ lol sorry for the blunt-ness!

@Carlos Enriquez  cost of litigating this vs fixing probably is not worth it. and since you did fsbo ... what sales agreement did you use.. if its standard WA form there will be mandatory mediation in these events.. if you used a Stevens ness form maybe not. 

You'll meet tons of people you wouldn't on here, and by meeting face-to-face it will be easier to establish a connection and really get a good sense of who you're working with and their level of professionalism and overall "non-scammy-ness" as that's such a problem in this industry.

In my opinion, the entire Birddog issue is as much a myth as Bigoot and the Loch Ness Monster!

Whether you exceed it before or after the loan is made doesn't alter the risky-ness of the situation - the risk to the bank.  

It's what I give credit for all my skills to, Including office work, dealing with people, handy man-ness, etc.

@Andrew Caldieraro I think realistically, you options are to deal with the uneven-ness, or spend possibly 10's of thousands of dollars to correct it.
