We've tried keeping a large supply of food, but you don't always pay attention to expiration dates or rotate the way we should.

That means your comps need to be similar to the subject or if a comp is used that is not similar, the adjustment can not exceed the adjustment per centages (10%), when you have two that are not similar your total adjustments will usually be exceeded.That basically means that burm and underground homes are rarely financed in the secondary market.....I know, I did two of them and it was like pulling hen's teeth, as I recall the LTV was 70 or 75% too.So this will limit yoiur market to cash buyers or those obtaining portfolio bank financing usually at a low LTV, forget about selling to the average family with 10% down.To get rid of it, you may need to seller finance it long term.

It can be double closed as long as the B-C transaction is not for more than 20% of the A-B purchase price within the past 90 days.That restriction runs with the title, so you'd still be held to that same 20% resale deed restriction from the date Fannie or Freddie signed off on the deed.
