It all sounds legitimate to me but I am still nervous.

So how else would I be able to tell if it’s legitimate?

You refused to talk to my client when they had legitimate concerns.Now my client just wanted to talk to you because your company guys hung up on him just because he couldn't save himself when he had to explain to me, someone that DOES know SEO why you spent 2000 dollars just to test "things". 

I also was thinking about an automated website that helps you make one but of course that's gonna be very general and not specific or prepared as a legitimate person helping out.Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for the best way to move on and start an LLC?

If you legitimately think you may qualify get with a good real estate tax strategist to see if this is a good option for you and how being able to utilize those losses can impact you

I run into this all the time.I know plenty of chiropractors,doctors,cpa's etc. that write off a ton in the business and pay themselves very little.Used to you could go stated income and this wasn't a problem.Because of the abuse it ruined it for legitimate individuals not wanting to pay our government more taxes that officials abuse anyways.So people making a few hundred a year but only paying themselves 30k look poor on paper but really can afford the loan.These people aren't going to show an income statement and pay tens of thousands more in taxes just to appease a bankers requirements for income on a tax return.What they will do is wait and hope stated comes back.

Just wanted some thoughts on precautions or legal resources to legitimize this offer.Aaron

No legitimate lender is going to ask for 5% before the loan closes.

If he has a legitimate special circumstances case he can proceed with his plan just fine after informing the lender, if he doesn't have a good enough case he could face criminal prosecution (it is unlikely but possible) to save a few hundred bucks a year instead of just waiting 6 months and fulfilling your occupancy condition.

Then give some real time for dealers, and doctors that prescribe thousands of pills a month to one patient (knowing they couldn't possibly need them for a legitimate purpose) and take the license away from the doctor to practice medicine.
