(This may vary due to your location but):I happen to like Goodman and Amana hi-efficiency furnaces (95-97% - natural gas) and so does my HVAC guy Dave, those are our go to lines.What furnace do you use and why?

@Manuel Savorelli I have the understanding that its 30 days that all inquiries of a similar nature (ie auto or mortgage) are bundled together for scoring purposes as to encourage rate shopping.

Then when I put it back on market I had to give concessions to get them rented like no security deposit and the rents were about 20% lower than they were in 2007.I'm fine with boom and bust as that's natural.

For example, if all properties are financed you'll naturally hit obstacles such as DTI limits or Fannie Mae constraints.

Each natural person is limited to one Mango Savings Account.

We always recommend exhausting that avenue first to save everyone some time, but in the scenario you described above, you can't (for at least 2 years), so this is your next best alternative; if you're going to do anything.Stephanie

@Andrew Great, assuming you own the land (which I assume you do since you refer to the property as a townhome rather than a condo), if the assessor does not assign separate values to land and building, you will have to use one of the alternative methods.  

some areas don't have online lookups, or require a paid subscription - so an alternative is described below.Use Google search to search for the parcel number on Zillow; see example (insert your parcel number in the obvious place):site:zillow.com "Parcel #: 380000480364"That is it.  

Start w/your own natural paths on who you know that might fit this category and start screening them for interest at a high level.  

Definitely would much rather go FHA, but always interested in exploring alternative options for out of the ordinary scenarios.
