Rule 504 had a $1 million limit but there was no limit on the number of investors who could invest, regardless of their status as accredited or non-accredited.

One of the tenant based reasons for all bills paid has to do with credit history (or lack thereof) and even legal status.  

I just got my real estate license and am on inactive status until I decide on a broker (narrowed it so should be in active status shortly). 

I'm currently trying to verify the tenants citizenship status with the current owner, but in the meantime I'm trying to figure out if there are any safeguards I can take.

Maybe the bank is discriminating based on marital status.... ;-) Ever think of that?

I like to communicate with the escrow officer directly myself to find out the status of the transaction all the time, instead of having the realtor email the escrow officer.

I have a rental at 77389 to the west of the woodlands, right next to tomball that I don't know the status of.

Ask yourself,  "Is it worth the risk it to jeopardize the tax deferred/free status your entire retirement account by getting too cute & doing a prohibited transaction?" 

When the resident calls for a status update, I kindly let them know that they didn't provide a forwarding address but their check is in our office safe, I can send it to whatever new address they want.  

The understanding that I have from my mortgage broker is that the loan will never make it past the underwriter if there isn't a valid reason for the purchase. i.e changing duty stations, change in family status, etc.
