At the same time, learn how to househack and start shopping for your next investment.

I plan to shop around as I don't feel this is a good deal.

There is also a little efficiency and a shop in the property which need work.

They are very knowledgeable on investment homes, pretty much a one stop shop.

This could simply be the difference between Florida and New York, but i'd certainly shop around.

We buy properties in high demand areas, Work in areas where there's a strong economy (more qualified buyers/investors) Buy land priced at or below market value, Design as cost effective of a project as possible,Shop everything for the best price and highest workmanshipList our own properties (and sometimes sell ourselves)Act as our own general and electrical contractors, Do all preliminary architectural and site design in houseStay involved with engineers, architect, planners, etc.Understand the entire permitting process, and build relationships. 

The answer is NO, as you thought,,can you cheat, yes, you can also shoplift today when your shopping, but I don't advise doing either, they are against the law, and mortgage fraud is a lot more serious than shoplifting

Companies like Adobe, Ebay, Amazon, Xactware, Vivint, Ancestry.com, Entrata, and others have all set up shop in the area. 

Not to mention your close to shops and great access to public transportation.

How many brokers does one get a number from when "shopping around?"
