Is there an expediter that you would recommend to help with submitting request for letter of no objection? 

Objective: I am interested in single family homes as investment properties, and have a 10 year horizon.Here's the background: I moved from Connecticut to New York recently, and I have one rental in Connecticut, which is about 2.5 hours away from my previous home. 

Offer #2 is objectively better, checking the market the lenders here tend to be on the difficult to work with and slow side.

Whatever it is, set your goals.Then work backwards.What objectives will you need to meet each year to reach those goals?

Probably wouldn't get a lot of objection there, seems in-range of a lot of offerings. 

If they did is there any way to overcome the objection?

Often when I'm talking with sellers and I ask to go look at the property, I get the "Well I don't want to bug the tenants or let them know I'm thinking of selling" objection. 

They are nothing more than shiny objects of distraction. 

we notarize everything like that means anything.and Hey i am going to send you a picture of me holding my ID  like that means anything. then of course the reason they can do this is a you buy an insurance policy that will pay the lender if you fail to pay them.well of course we know this does not exist other than on fannie freddie or VA loans.. so they hit you with another 2 to 5k for this bogus does not exist insurance.. they =know all the strings to pull that suck people in.. all the objections and things that those not familar with borrowing money would think well hey thats cool cant be a scam  :)

What are your objectives?
