Keep digging in and of course, remain active here in the community to help you build up your network.  

Thanks for the info about 1003 -- I'm looking forward to digging into that and then revisiting with both lenders.To answer your question about why they'd be asking what my rental income is -- they aren't.

We stayed on good terms and I gave her a good reference for another landlord a year later.But usually, when a tenant digs in, they know the process and aren't too concerned about it.

Far from a financial success story, but I feel moderately successful just by the fact that I'm not digging myself out of a hole.Now I'm trying to figure out where to go from here.

If yes it is time to dig deeper and start looking for a local Realtor that you can trust.

If it's something I'm interested in but they don't seem overly motivated then I still dig in and learn.

I live in one of the hardest hit areas,  we got just over 85" of snow...We are finally finishing digging out after two full days of plowing, shoveling and snowblowing, not to mention having to shovel off the roofs of our houses, garages etc as many are beginning to collapse due to weight and will get worse now that we are forecast for a thaw and rain which will more then double the snow loads.  

Dig in, and have fun!

I'll post details when its under contract currently we are waiting on the seller to sign their side of the contract so we can dig into the numbers more throughly.

Keep what consistent information you can dig up like the parcel ID number, important or reoccurring dates at hand so when you click from one site to another you can make the connections.
