No, Run away fast. You will be taken to the cleaners. They have hungry commission based sales people. You are talking to an insurance pusher.... not a financial adviser.

open a brokerage account at Vanguard and invest in index mutual funds.

You should look at the statement you got from the mortgage processor.

They send you a detailed analysis of the escrow. They can make mistakes.

No need to sweat, do not compare to others.

400 kWh in one month is 400/30= 1.33 kWh per day = 54 Watts per hours on average. That is one electric lamp or "drain" from TVs, chargers, computers and your refrigerator.

You can buy one of those "kill-a-watt" tools and see the usage of say refrigerator or computer.

Your electricity provider (with a smart meter) may also have your usage hour by hour...

Prenup... not in your situation.

Combine income, combine expenses. You two will be one, one dream, one future. It does not sound that your relationship is at that point.

Two choices: - get some counseling - stay single.

(prenup= love your money more than you love your partner.....)

The bank has to establish that you is you. (identity verification). They usually ask questions based on information from the credit report. If there are errors in that report, you will denied.

Couple of things:

- get copies of your credit report (www.annualcreditreport.com) and make sure the information in those is accurate.

- chexsystems (https://www.chexsystems.com/) is another one to check. If you had ever a bank account closed by a bank, they reported that here and will not allow you to open another account. You are deemed a high risk.

Save up cash and pay cash.

Find someone (start asking around) who does this; maybe one town over. Meet them, have coffee, buy their lunch. Learn before you invest.

(No, do not buy one of those midnight informercial crap on cable/local TV or "seminar"). Talkradio is also full with it).

Go slow with the cash you have.

I wondering how liquid your investment is. Who do you sell it to when you want out or need cash for a large purchase. what if the "onco" wants to sell all? what if the "onco" dies, who is his successor.

so much risk and you have no control.

I would never do that. I suggest to sell and just by REIT mutual funds from Vanguard.
