Fannie Mae can re-list it without disclosures because they will not take a buyers word that something is wrong.

Be cautious with sandwich lease options Vanessa, Bill Gulley and I have been talking on this subject for a long time.If you are dealing with free and clear houses, taking title via a private 1st mortgage - installment sale and renting or lease option is smarter than a sandwich.Also on the selling on lease option side, watch out for rent credits, in other words do not do them, consider a ROFR, or right of first refusal, as Dodd Frank, SAFE Act, etc. has come into play.Use a RMLO or Reg Mortg Loan Orginator with your buyers as per the ATR (Ability to Repay Rule) will bite you later if the buyer gets an attorney on a seller financed deal.

Use your key word tool, there are meetings held in Summit, NJ that would be to your benefit to attend.
