Does the lender require the same paperwork?

It doesn't take three hours, but it is a pain and if the agent is not used to the system it can take a long time to get the paperwork ready and submit the offer.

I am wondering, how are you all managing all the paper work from the beginning to the ending phase?

He/she will process all paperwork and work with escrow and title.

I plan on taking advantage of FHA financing with 3.5% down on a 2/3-family.What paperwork/records would I need to prove income and allow me to use FHA financing?

I can certainly manage paperwork, but it's the hands-on stuff that would be a big challenge.

My wife has a file that's over 2 feet tall of insurance paperwork.

Lot of paperwork.

Actually it all hinged on appraisal, once they realized I was getting built in equity day 1 they pushed all the paperwork through quickly.I also recall having a little mini interview with the commercial loan officer.
