I created a wix.com website which is referred to in CL, Postlets, Zillow, etc postings           (www.40auburnst.wix.com/maldenma) (Also - I am not sharing this link as advertising - just to show what I did - mods, please delete if this a violation) which gives a detailed description of property and application process.

I refer to my pearls of wisdom as my "Golden Nuggets" of real estate wisdom.

Coincidently I was on the exact same Course's website just about to hit the purchase button when I decided to go to BP to see if there were any references for the course material and found his post.  

Landlords aren't looking for an unemployed couple with no savings but with good references.  

They have the income, no felonies, no evictions, good personal references and the last landlord had nothing but high remarks.  

On the POF letter that i get it refers to the funds as ( "Verification of funds to close") and that they are a licensed mortgage group.

If a tenant has been in a property that long I typically keep them there(especially if they have been on time payments over that duration).When you did your inspection before purchase were there items that you noticed to be attended to immediately? 

B items removed from the title commitment as possible and deletion of all Sch.

If you need to ask how to do that, you will do better by referring to someone in your area with experience.

I went to high school in Arlington (in what I refer to as "The Marion Barry Days") and really, really love what the city has become.
