If the people you get in bed with on deals are shady, then you in effect become shady with them and your habits become shady.

I am 25 and 8 years younger than any of the other partners at my firm, so I know how age can effect things.

But, it may produce an "echo boom" sort of effect when the protection expires.There have been a series of series in the Denver Post that talks about the whole foreclosure situation.

are they dealing w these problems more effectively?

We have considered creating and signing a contract that states the expectations of both parties, but are not sure how real estate law effects our situation.

Effectively, you gain $70K in net worth.

However it is disclosed as non effecting number to the borrower.

Look up "adverse possession" and "abandonment of real property" issues in your state.However, I'd say it will effect marketability, I probably wouldn't buy it if I couldn't maintain the side of my house.

It is a challenge to make it cost effective.

That doesn't factor in appreciation or the tax shield effect either, so with that in conjuction with my four figure per day (possibly for a limited time?)
