I believe there are some college classes that count towards the pre-license, so I was wondering if anyone knows if appraisal classes could count towards that as well.

They only count income from working for someone else and even encouraged us to start a business.

If over half the roof is replaced in a "repair", does that still count as a repair?

RS is just like any other lender they vette and make the best decision they can.This other person who you posted his link he as you state is a competitor so his opinions don't count.

If it's close(gross), stability counts...How long on job/Good rental history..Stability weak, can be a consistent problem...Also consider using a guarantor..I will if tenant seems like a good fit..you choose, but cover your basis..

If you count on being able to just transfer into another deal... well.
