Staff often seemed to focus on one requirement at a time, and only moving on to others as each was taken care of, instead of starting them all at the same time.

The GC is a business person who doesn't care about your ARV, LTV, or your budget.

I have had a couple of clients just get the loan approved with the long term rates and then the bank really doesn't care how they get it rented out after.

The IRS doesn't care which of you is on title.

No one cares about your properties like you do.

My experience with S8: There is a reasonably strong correlation between S8 tenants and tenants that do not take care of a rental property. 

.* Receipts and Expenses: Once I brought to Jenny's attention that we were 20k above budget, she refused for days to give me the receipts, saying that I needed to give her my credit card statement first.

Be careful asking such questions.

You have to understand that these people don't care about anything, and the government people are overworked and will not follow up with all the small cases. 

However, since you put the asset into an LLC, I am going assume you care about asset protection and further this discussion just a bit.My advice to you is to seek out local banks where much of their business is derived from commercial lending.
