Should I Be Worried! Please Help – About to Purchase Condo?

Ok, first thanks for reading this question.

My wife and I purchased a Condo Last Year in Chicago for 360k, this Condo was under construction and will be ready in July. We already gave 36K deposit for earnest money which will be used as down payment. We plan on putting another 36k at least to make 20% down. We might put more down, maybe even 100k total.

We make combine 70K and have a combined credit score of about 680 -

My question is – do we qualify for a traditional 30 year fixed at a good interest rate? Is it even possible to do a 15 year fixed with our income.

I’m a little worried we will not qualify for a loan because of our low combine income(70K).

The condo has 3 bedrooms so we plan on renting 2 of them out for 1000k a month to help out with the mortgage (do lenders consider rental money and should I even mention it?)

Thanks for any help =)

Need help putting together purchase agreement for a house. For sale by owner. How do I create?

I am the buyer, seller has to net a certain amount. The house is worth more than we are paying. We are required to put 15% down. Looking for a creative way to write up the contract where the seller nets what he wants and we can minimize downpayment.

I need sound legal advise on a real estate purchase?

I bought a house from a private sale. (for sale by owner)
I love the house and the neighborhood is mostly quiet. However, the seller failed to tell me that the people next door are gang members and sell drugs right from their front porch. Had I known this
I would have never bought the house. What are my legal rights as a consumer and can I get out of my mortgage without hurting my credit?
