I am actually closing on a personal property later this month.  

I am actually traveling 15-18th and won't be in town.

Or if you were renting and were no where near prepared to buy a house before the disaster, probably not a good idea, you'd still need cash for closing costs, which can come as a "gift" but never a good idea to buy a house with no money in the bank even if the lender actually let you do it. 

@Jake Walroth your question is a bit vague, it depends on what type of property you were actually buying.

depending on when you actually stopped living in the home you may still get the sale of primary residence exclusion.

My other commercial prop is auto related; this is a different industry.Taylor: a bit more about the prop: it is technically 16' clear height, but that is for the drive thru wall-the actual roof hieght is 24'.

Just to clarify it is the community owner that controls the quality of sub lease tenants not the home owner.The problem however that you would face is the owner of the homes will actually control your business.

Now does no money down, actually mean absolutely no money down, or does it mean something else?

@Timothy Martin  I use actual MLS data - one of the benefits of being a licensed agent.Zillow's "zestimates"are notoriously bad.  

I cannot find out whether the loan is actually going to be defaulted on.The customer service is horrible so my advice - STAY AWAYFinally, my email to them is marked SOLVED as if to say that they adequately and fairly answered my questionI am just glad that I limited myself to the one small investment
