If you can network and find local players (FB groups, meetups) that could help speed it up

There have been some big players entering the PM market and a lot more interest in acquisitions of smaller PM operations.

If you have time to secure this loan through a bank, I would strongly consider it. 

(Finance of America, Civic Financial, a few other players) They raised rates on there 30Y product about two weeks ago.

I think one thing people need to understand is in the US the ten-year treasury is competing against the mortgage-backed securities and while the ten-year is impacted by interest rates, its not the only factor and amount of spending we do also impacts it.they auctioned off 30-year today and it went really bad as no one wants our long-term debt and it sold for 4.3%10-year notes recently traded for 3.96% but again very weak demand - which I believe means yield prices may continue to move up, which means interest rates are not going down dramatically anytime soon - so that fed 25 or 50bps drop is not going to have your mortgage lender dropping rates suddenly the next day...Now the spread between the 10 yr and 30yr mortgages historically is closer to 1.75 but recently has been between 2-3% due to yield curve.

Can You Secure a Second FHA Loan?

I cancelled their contract and when I asked them the security deposit be mailed to me in NJ, they sent the security cheque to some address in Philly.

Their most common threat is a security deposit dispute.

I need something simple that I could utilize today.Thanks you will not be able to get something today. in order to pull credit typically you must have a background check done on you and the company will also come visit your office and confirm you have specific security policies and procedures in place. 

That is not a benefit for you, nor any kind of evidence that they are worthy of becoming a resident.That issue aside, I would not allow someone with a recent eviction on my property unless the "unfortunate circumstance" was unlikely to recur AND they otherwise have a strong historical track record of making payments AND they would put down a very large security deposit.
