Not at all IMO, the initial contact was arising from a solicitation and the "known to us" is usually past business dealings,or an introduction by a third party you do business with, not a hand shake through an e-mail!

Please advise what paragraph or statute   Has language stating withholding is required.Thanks, Todd G.

Now, reread the third paragraph!

Lemme' put this into my spreadsheet... 5 unit buildingStanding water in the basement Significant market time to the public on the MLSDeclining neighborhood Purchase price $85kInsufficient reserves for a 25% down paymentNo REI experienceNo stated value add opportunitySpreadsheet says: "Divide by zero error"I'm the first one to acknowledge every person's market, strategy, and definition of success is different, but man ... this just sounds like a terrible, terrible introduction to REI.  

What would be the mechanism (maybe a paragraph in my loan document) that says I am allowed to see all HUDs from purchase and sale? 

The first paragraph of Question 6 in the link you first posted lays out what landlords are allowed to do.

Hi Tom I hope all is well, you are a man who needs no introduction my friend, I have read both articles as soon as I became a member and they are great and educational .

Wise for the introduction.
