Thanks Bill and Wayne-The FNMA bid website says an accepted offer is in hand, this has to be recent since when we scheduled the walk Sunday (Monday Walk, Tuesday bid) the property was available.If the bid falls through I will keep BP aprised of the twists and turns, otherwise on to the next deal.

Martin his findings as an examiner, I'm pretty sure compliance types just throw their hands up in the air and say...oh, well, the borrower transferred title, no big deal, let's go eat lunch!

How many of those offers do you have in hand?

I currently own a handful of properties.

Go out and get your hands dirty and talk to those that DO.

I use a Texas Instruments BA II Plus hand calculator.
