And also, pricing at 7% with that low of a FICO is highly unlikely, unless I am missing something here@Robin Simon I'm not familiar with the quote but confirming our minimum FICO currently is 640 however if there is a partnership (multiple full joint and several recourse guarantors) we currently take the higher of the two median FICOs if equal ownership % Also - 7.625% is certainly in our ballpark currently - doesn't seem unreasonable with our rates right now! 

Wanted to know your thoughts on the area and then also any connections to certified Real Estate agents in the area as it will most likely be a STR after a year of living in it.

Lessons learned: 1) Do a more thorough tour of house before purchasing 2) Have more money saved Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Set aside the full 25k for cash reserves, pay off some debt, perform preventative maintenance (furnaces, etc) or buy next property?
