Anyone tried linseed paint?

The website that sells the silent paint remover claims that their linseed-oil based paints are longer-lasting ("50 years" with proper maintenance) than typical choices and don't require primer etc. Has anyone used their Allback brand exterior paint? I'm thinking of using it for windows and exterior trim, perhaps interior trim too. Thanks

Need HUD 203k inspector

Can anyone recommend an FHA HUD 203(k) inspector or consultant they've worked with on a rehab mortgage? Thanks

What were the terms of your 203k program? Did you go to Countrywide? A lot of lenders have stopped doing them. What were the details of your transaction? Purchase price? cost of renovations? How much did you put down? How many units?
I don't mean to pry but I'm interested.
