They pretended that Fortune Builders only accepted the most motivated and qualified persons for the Mastery program but I am sure that anyone that had the $30,000+ for the program would magically meet their "qualifications."

Now that doesn't mean you do business with people who are bad at their profession, but it's always better to have friends than enemies, and so at least pretend you respect them because at some point you will have to do a deal with someone you don't like.

So pretend that they did do the inspections and they were good or bad.

Meaning, for the more simple minded people, you could sit with your thumb up your butt for 121 months before you run out of the $8,000.If you can make more than 0.8% or $65.90 a month on your $8,000 over the course of 30 years, then I would say you would have made the right decision to skimp out on the bigger down payment.NOW.. my honest opinion, although i'm not a mogul like some of these people are, or pretend to be on this website..I would say keep the $8,000 and find a way to get extremely creative with it in order to make more than .8% a month to make it a good investment.

Pretend!

I don't want to pretend to be an expert.

I am not an attorney or pretend to know all areas of this kind of law.

You were not told about the work location until after closing, which means you acted in good faith and had every intention of owner occupying just like you promised at the closing table, but something you did not and could not have anticipated came up.Save that email, or tell your HR person to put in writing somewhere [let's pretend April 3rd close date] "as you recall, we informed you on April 7th that you will be expected to relocate to XYZ when you start this new job

Then, pretend you are a buyer and see what you would you would offer for a house with imperfections versus what's on the market.  

Some people will say I got lucky, others will say I'm smart, but all I did was leave my ego at home, pretend I know nothing and leverage the experts in the market.
