Once they would confirm the eligibility they said they would guarantee the loan, not a grant.- Met with architectural engineers to get a rough idea on how many units we could roughly get out there based on the location, elements, zone, etc.

Hi Eric,I'm a fellow newbie and just wanted to send a suggestion for you to gather additional information (beyond the seller's claims ) about  the rental rates in that market and specifically for that property by reviewing the rent rolls and current leases in addition to getting confirmation about the landlord's monthly expenses for the property.

He confirmed my appointment, with zero instructions.
