Have you had them run the numbers on what the closing costs would be for the property? 2K is a good start but will most likely not cover the closing costs...unless you can get the seller to pay them.

Didn't crunch any numbers but from my experience it might be tight getting approved for $135k. You're probably right in the neighborhood though so i hope it works out for you!
