My experience is you just gotta ride it out with them, they'll take forever and then get pissed if you don't act immediately when they are ready.Like was mentioned, it depends a lot on who you are dealing with.

You might be worring about nothing unless you intend on staying there forever.

I will definitely be keeping my eye out for events and meetups as we look to expand our network.

My wife and I are looking for our forever home, most likely going to build on a plot of land.

That kind of percentage will lock her into whatever place she lives in forever, most likely.

@Jason Harmon  That could be a great strategy over time but it could literally take forever. 

They depreciate and don't last nearly as long as a single family home, you'll be paying lot fees forever if you don't own the land 

There is basically nothing I can do.Also, any property I buy now is with the intent to hold it basically forever, will take 6 months to remodel.

They are super difficult to work with, and on more than 1 occasion the work took forever to be completed.

The outcome was that we sold it after about 10 months on the market, it took us forever to be able to get the home fixed.
