If you have anyone that has a lending background, verifications are not hard to obtain or verify prudently.

So unless you have some strong evidence, I would just give them the benefit of the doubt since it's military related.. tough situation to be in.. for both of you I'm sure.Sometimes you're better off doing what makes sense, rather than what can technically tried to be done from a legal perspective..

Hi Pete,Could you sell the property to another investor on a "subject-to" basis so that you get your down payment (assuming it's realistic) but still technically own the property?

By way of background, my core investing strategy is buy and hold.

You're going to need good credit, meet DTI standards, have 20% down atelast, then the bank is going to want to do thorough background checks on your contractor, appraisals, double check your repairs estimate to be sure its accurate, yada yada yada.

Would they technically "work" for me or not since they are not making profit?

We still take an application fee and perform regular screening (credit/background/reference/employment checks) but our expectations are most will have little to no credit history.

No matter how many years experience you have, or what your background, there' something here for you.

What are some of the sites that everyone is using to find the background info when you find a vacant home?

Technically, not notifying/seeking approval of change in ownership makes the loan in technical default if they checked, but I haven't heard of people coming to a problem with this, because it seems like most banks don't want to rock the boat as long as you are making your payments..
