Robert,The 2 means of egress often a question on the application. 

I already had a qualified applicant at that time.After the inspection he gets me down to 140,625.

Then, after all inspections are passed, close it back up and finish it off.Also, you might ask the building official if you can submit a professional engineer's letter that says he saw the construction, and that it was all done according to the applicable codes. 

Is it custom to pay an application fee of close to $1000 per loan?  

BP,I need you help.Is it usual for a hard money lender to ask for a "uniform residential loan application" to be completed.

@Nick Keesee I would most definitely rent the place out ASAP to a qualified applicant.

If you had taken my advice to take a licensing class when I first gave it, you would have a license by now and be showing houses daily, maybe making some money, certainly making contacts and experience.But anyway, here is the advice: Flip land.Permit applications in Southern New Hampshire are up.

We do criminal and credit background checks on all applicants.

I'm moving this post from the general forum to this forum, I think it's more applicable here.We are in the process of buying our first investment home.

I use 3x total rent is required for one of the applicants or if none meet that then 2x for double and 1.5x triple or more.
