My lender (bank) transferred one of my mortgages to another bank with instructions regarding where to send future payments.

Which banks in Ohio, or nationwide allows for seller financing of the downpayment?

They want a cash offer of $128,000 for both properties.My question to you guys is would I be able to use a hard money lender to obtain the property with cash and then refinance the property through a bank to obtain my mortgage?

I've gotten a few weird looks when I've asked at a few banks in my area.

Closing was four months, but that is because it was a foreclosure and things tend to move more slowly (depending on what bank owns it and how much they care about liquidating that asset).

I don't mean the ones hosted by the BP staff, rather the ones that are done by members, etc.

Banks lending with 0 down and other stupid practices also added to this.

Depending on your situation, you could live in a unit finance via FHA w/ 3.5% down and bank the other two units.
