Ok, I am not having luck with purchasing real estate! My first three have attempts have fallen through the cracks. This last one makes me so frustrated. Great townhouse complex, good location, completely remodeled unit from top to bottom, excellent below market price as the sellers were very motivated! Cash flow of about $320 and my pick of renters.
Tentative lender gave me an offer Monday morning for a mortgage. I gave them every piece of documentation they required - on the town house, on my credit situation (not a problem there). Subjects were to be removed today. The lender comes back this afternoon and sayed they don`t like some things that are in the past strata minutes, or the look of the complex (they had someone take pictures and research rents). Would not give me a mortgage. Today - the day the subjects were to be removed! Not 2 days ago, not yesterday. They had the documents for several days.
Another offer for the townhouse is in the wings so I am sure the seller will take it, I can`t see it being cheaper than mine. Hopefully the buyer will purchase the home inspection from me that I did on Tuesday for close to 400 bucks. I`ll give them a good deal!
What can I do to avoid this situation in the future?
Thanks Kathi
