If it were that out of line with reality, the government wouldn't back loans on this basis.

This is a good punch-list that all investors should use, not just new or inexperienced.New Western is a wholesale mill for sure, but they also use licensed agents to complete their transactions, who are governed by state license law. 

@Tom Gimer  heck of a stretch of an argument…regulating commerce which IS specifically mentioned in the constitution as a government function doesn’t fall under any of those categories. 

Same thing here with discriminating against a private pay applicant because they're not government guaranteed income.

I sold what was left and decided that I would never again buy property where the government could lie & turn against you.

“Force Majeure” means: hurricanes, floods, extreme weather, earthquakes, fires, or other acts of God, unusual transportation delays, wars, insurrections, civil unrest, or acts of terrorism, governmental actions and mandates, government shut downs, epidemics, or pandemics, which, by exercise of reasonable diligent effort, the non-performing party is unable in whole or in part to prevent or overcome.

Sounds like you are in the Poconos and you are trying to flip vacant land, governed by an HOA, without a defined buyer.

The process is seamless compared to typical government loans.

In a free market the rents would reflect the scarcity of a great product but the government tries to meddle in the free market which at least in the short term increases the scarcity. 

I think the government (FHA) and conventional side will require at least a year, if not two of this type of income.
