If tenant has foodstamp dcf payments are they consistent and how long are they approved for?

I have qualified for an FHA loan pre approved for $250000.

I’ve yet to take the action to get pre-approved because of this issue.

Got it done & approved so you need to work with the bldg insp.

Have to schedule a follow up, which arrived 1 week later, and issued the approval about a week later. 

Find a contractor Find a house that doesn’t need major walls removed/moved, and a house that doesn’t need demo’d and rebuilt Take the contractor with you so the contractor can write up a scope of workSubmit everything to your lender Once everything is finalized the contractor can start on the rehab and get draws from the lender At the end of the deal the bank refinances the house out of the 203k loan into a conventional loan as long as it has 20% equity (which it will have to before the bank will even approve of the 203k loan. 

I've been pre-approved for a max purchase price of $690,000 with an FHA loan but I think the max I'd be willing to purchase is $500,000.

I don’t want to start shopping around before I become pre approved and without a understanding lender I’m unable to begin anything.

Fact is, certain homes do get aged so with owner approval we will run specials.

Also if you need a lender reference who I know used all of our rent to negate a mortgage in the pre-approval process you can direct message me.
