It's really old and was not put in by the current owners so I don't believe its an intentional cover up.The inspector says the foundation doesn't make him nervous, but of course that's one person's opinion and people do miss things.Considering having a structural engineer take a look as ripping out the floors in the basement is out of the question.Any thoughts or suggestions?

BUT the buyer came in with a $63K down payment, so I also knew that that amount would more than cover the difference.

That's fine, I can blame the system and wait 3 more years or so, or I can use hard money to finance 85% of the purchase price + use available funds from my 401k to cover the downpayment.

opinion.In a very general overview, I current own my home with a mortgage payment around 1150 and have done a comparative market analysis on the rent in my area and they are anywhere between 2000 and 2750.With that being said, I have been entertaining the idea of renting this house out and down sizing/grading a bit and purchasing another home to live in.Essentially, estimating this on the low conservative end of the spectrum from my "due diligence", it appears as if I rented this out I could cover my mortgage for my current home and then also cover the mortgage on the new primary residence.What are your guys' thoughts on this?
