It sits down the hillside of the street address..... and the driveway is the major hiccup in this listing (again, in my humble opinion).It's at the point where there have been close to a 100 showings on this house since it was listed almost a year ago and we've been in contract twice (to have financial issues crop up on the buyer's end) and lots of positive feedback... except for the driveway.  

I also lived, ate, worked along side and trained daily with the infantry units and was totally immersed with them, deploying with them all the way over there for their entire tour.

I didn't experience any issues with the appraisals, but the UW process was a bit tedious, but it was being outsourced that time.I've gotten quotes on loans since then and I speak to my rep there fairly often so I have a good pulse on what's going on there and I'd say they're much improved, but I can't speak as to what how the loan process is currently, but for those who have limited access to blanket loans via a conventional bank I suspect that the ability to secure this kind of financing makes most lender related hiccups a mute point.

@Matt Fish, I have been involved in a deal that ended up with B2R financing, and the process was pretty smooth, if you ignore some hiccups.

Our biggest hiccup has been finding buyers- I guess we need to do a little more leg work.

These contracts can be skewed terribly in favor of the Owner so that he will foreclose on you for any little hiccup, so protect yourself right the first time and you will know what to look for on subsequent deals.Diligence on the property needs to focus a lot on the well, the septic system, and the mobile home.  

Although I am currently focused on flipping, this is something I wouldn't mind pursuing alongside and gain expertise.

Special rules apply when investing in real estate alongside your own solo 401k though which I have discussed in may other posts already.

Do your homework before buying or putting your name out there along side anyone.

Hi Ben, actually we talked and I ended up working with Donny Gothard at Security National Mortgage Company and have been pretty happy with their 7 points 2% temp to perm program thus far, aside from hiccups along the way with processing from RedDoor who does the temp through them.
