Using a traditional mortgage, this translates to an out-of-pocket of about $12,500 ($10k down pmt, $2500 closing costs).  

I consented to none of them, cable companies should know they need support of property owner before altering the property. 

Refinanced it again alter on at over $3m, used that extra cash to buy another big property -- rinse wash repeat.   

@Steve Vaughan perhaps you could have simply pointed out the specific defect with the property "steep stairs with poorly placed railings" rather than translating that into who would or would not like the property.What may be a better way to say it, if the neighborhood is rough for instance, may be 'I wouldn't want my sister living in this hood.'

I had to stop reading when you tritely cited Ohio rentals and the on paper numbers not translating to reality.

In my current market, that would translate into a CoC of 12%+.  

So, I am wondering about this scenario to see if it's possible: 1) I sign a contract and send it to a seller, who also signs 2) one of my contingencies is about the ability to obtain a mortgage 3) the underwriting process gets underway 4) they approve me and send me the Note, mortgage, etc. to sign (from what I hear) a day before the closing 5) I read it, and find something the bank's attorneys put in the Note and mortgage that is unsettling 6) the bank won't make any alterations to the contracts 7) I decline to get a loan or at least, get a loan with that bank 8) seller takes earnest money because I backed out of a loan.I assume most people are so pleased to get a loan that they just kind of sign whatever is put in front of them.

Your wife has better instincts, as head trauma for a baby can be life-altering. 3.

Stop thinking that popularity, celebrity status, number of followers, or how funny, entertaining, clever, effects laden or cool an ad is,, that this somehow translates to how effective their system is.

I would also find out if the husband changed the locks as that constitutes a lease violation for altering the property in addition to what Jon stated.
