@Dylan Mortman - Makes sense to me that you wouldn't be able to see the full lease until contract, but I highly advise to read the entire lease.

Common sticking points include:Verification of rent or mortgage on your primary residenceA recent utility bill to confirm occupancySix months of reserves, even on rate-and-term or cash-out refis where no funds are required to close401(k) and retirement accounts being discounted to 60% of their valueLenders requiring PDFs with full account details — screenshots aren’t accepted, and missing information (like account number or name) means resubmittingTedious Corrections That Slow Everything DownThe closing process is often delayed by minor, technical issues that feel like death by a thousand cuts:Appraisal revisions for things like a refrigerator not being labeled correctly on the reportTitle corrections that go back and forth with the title companyInsurance documentation — lenders often want a formal invoice proving the policy is paid in full, and it’s shocking how many insurance companies struggle to provide this in a clear, timely formatEach of these delays typically adds 24–48 hours, and because most lenders don’t work evenings or weekends, momentum can stall quickly.

As for my full time job, I'm not sure that I will continue to do this but at the moment it's my current capital that I am using to work on these projects.

Ideally we'd rent the main cabin cheap then have that person rent the 3 airbnbs but they likely wouldn't stay full all the time.

I got paid back in full, but did not like how he conducted business.

Should I wait until I have a full two years of consistent income history, or is there a way I might still qualify for a favorable loan given my current circumstances?

After days of back-and-forth, I finally received a corrected payoff letter on April 24 and wired the full amount on April 30.Now it’s been 23 days since I paid off the loan, and the lien still hasn’t been released.To make it worse, in May, Fay withdrew two additional payments from my account after the payoff.
