I understand that these statements puts us in a position of power, building our credibility, and cash buying power, however my concern lies with the fact that I can do not have the power to purchase a property for all cash, as I am on a budget; I also do not buy houses all around the area yet.

Xmas can not wait, their landlord can.You are being lied to by your tenants.

Sometimes they'll vet the contractors too (if it's a new build or heavy construction).After I purchase the property, they'll also make sure my contractors aren't lying to me about progress by doing draw inspections.

Numbers don't lie people do......My husband and I are waiting for our final step to process. tentative closing date 09/24/18I will keep you guys updated!"

It sounds like this is where your skill set lies.

Seems like a friend who is co-signing and lying to help the others get a place they're not qualified forI would tell #2 that the SS# came up invalid and ask for the right one.

How can we be sure that the numbers we are given are accurate? Can we ask for a third party audit? Is this common practice? 

So clearly she lied or your right, she doesn’t have a clue.

But don't be surprised when they:1) Don't believe you because all your supporting docs will show your real primary residence on them.or2) Do believe you, then find out you lied and slap you with mortgage fraud.It will not end well.

We do not believe he is doing anything at this time and believe he has likely lied to us.Also, we are hoping to sell our home in the next few months so we are trying to not have to disclose a "nuisance" as it may bring down our property value/turn away buyers.Help!
