You could also ask the realtor for any of the houses you are looking at whether the current owner would consider giving you the mortgage him-or-herself. You do sometimes see "owner financing available" in real estate situations.
Thanks Karen. I will be going one step further with my documentation. I have the arbitrators award that puts the entire onus on him for his finances, all he gets to do is use my name. All the bank needs to do is actually READ the document.

Thank you to you and my entire PT family. Loves you all!!
