@Sandra - I was under the impression that the seller writes the contract.

I have been reading your posts and have to say I am very impressed with your knowledge and experience.

I was so into asking good questions, absorb information like a sponge, and give a good impression that I missed that important part...who's going to take me seriously if I can provide a possible contact with something as basic as a business card?

Thanks guys, I'm already really impressed with the website.

But at the same time I feel it could come in and give an impression of arrogance maybe?

Landlord may want to impress upon the tenant to file for a restraining order, also landlord may be able to get restraining order also from his property.  

In looking at your profile I see that you have some impressive business experience, but development is in a world of its own. 

While you can pay cash, that is impressive- however interest rates are so low that I would take advantage of financing.  

I was under the impression that you were able to get a much higher return on your taxes for the interest payments so this information was definitely useful. how about other deductibles such as depreciation or itemized deductibles?

We've received plenty of No's and just enough Yes's, but consistently the loan officers are impressed by our Finance Application.
