@Mary Cronin Great points! 

A little more about my market, I am within 30 minutes of the downtown Detroit area in Michigan. 

Michigan Community Revitalization Program (MCRP) performance-based grant was used to help facilitate the construction of four new loft apartments and updated the ground floor commercial spaces in downtown Ithaca Michigan.

Michigan area info on what the average rate for hard money lenders are?

I'm looking to buy my first property in the next few months in MI and find that not many banks will do 85% loan to value.

Hi Mary, It may be a good deal, but it may not be good timing for us.

HomePossible has no upfront MI premium and lower monthly premiums.As for the last part regarding only being employed for 7 months, I'd suggest reaching out to some lenders and seeing what they say.
