Once the court is satisfied that all potential interested parties have been given a chance to make any claims they feel they have, and the paperwork is filed properly the probate court will allow a sale via a court order than can be exercised by the person or persons representing the estate.  

Granted there are a great deal of assumptions in the crystal ball is used to do the analysis.  

If the scenario was that they admit to poorly estimating the job, then I’d guess they deliberately low balled it to get the job.

.  I was considering options like Hardmoney (never done this) home improvement loan (never done this) or Finding a credit union or bank that would give me the a rehab loan based on the post rehab value loan (never done this either)Any advice would be super helpful, I’ve got a lot of balls in the air right now.

@Jordan BurnettThat’s an excellent question and you are on the ball to ask it.I would ask the sponsor directly and have them point you to the specific section in the PPM that addresses this issue. 

My concern is any odd balls that would throw my DTI out of whack.

Good neighborhood + nothing wrong with the core of the house = nothing a few $ won’t solve once you move.Low-balling in this hot market is not working as well, but I’m also seeing a lot of sellers frustrated by buyers cancelling last second because they lost their jobs or couldn’t meet financing.

(Not commenting on the ethics of this practice, just making the unsubstantiated claim that it does happen.)Of course this isn't always going to work, but may be a deterrence in some cases, especially when the employee knows he doesn't belong there anyway.So, if you'd been "looking the other way" for minor lease infractions so long as the rent was paid on time, maybe if the rent isn't paid those infractions can become less minor.Just spit-balling here, I'm no lawyer.

Hey @Adam SchumacherOh man, without a crystal ball, I don't think anyone knows the answer to that question.

I would like to try to generate some of these leads myself as an exercise.
