Newbie-- just trying to get my feet wet

[Jerry Winslett]

Just became one of the crowd a few minutes ago--just wanted to say hi to everyone and let you know I will probably be bugging you to the point of hysteria. That being said I have been reading a lot about the double escrow closing and use of discount mortgages. Just wondering if these techniques work the way they are portrayed (smooth and easy) and if so, why isn't everybody using them almost exclusively?
