. -6 months is pretty standard for seasoning for a cash out refinance.

@Javaras ThomasAgency debt (Fannie and Freddie) are considered the gold standard of financing.

The standard in Orlando is 20%.

@Rashad Ellis Yea, all the banks in MA require a w9 to open up these accounts, and I know it's pretty standard in CT, NJ, and NY (and others)

-Save extra money
-Take advantage of low to zero down mortgages

-Make use of your retirement plan
-Find a roommate
-Cut back on non-essentialsWhich one(s) have you implemented?

I offered to negotiate with my landlord (give him $200 and I get the rest back), but he is only willing to settle for half of the deposit, which I think is outrageous for a standard cleaning fee.Taking him to small claims court is worth it to me since I can sue for double the deposit plus damages, but I'm wavering ONLY because if I win, like @Bruce Woodruff said, I would then have to collect on the judgement.

Standard procedure is to post your state-specific notice of lease violation, and then perform a follow up inspection at the expiration of said notice, to determine if the violation is cured. 

Also, when I check the state local court records online I find more charges under a persons name that appears to be the same person but that didn't show up in their report with the application.Is there a standard for how long a person needs to be at their current job?

You could have two properties when just using standard methods available.Another reason to not BRRRR your own primary home is that I can find plenty of homes on the MLS that DO NOT fit the BRRRR method but fit my primary home requirements.  

You'll find lots of folks who have done many such loans and have standardized processes for it.
