In general, I kind of hate all the "rules" I see floating around here.

I think it will boil down to the state and federal mandates that come down in the coming weeks surrounding that Corona Virus, I also know there are a-lot of Small business loans floating around. 

I guess the question is, post the 150bp of emergency Fed cuts, are you seeing 3.5% IR on fixed or floating with 5yr term and 25-30 yr amm?

Was hoping to be closer to 4.0% due to rates drifting lower.

Being able to float the mortgage for the foreseeable future is a factor to be mindful of when budgeting. 

I've floated across careers/jobs in new home construction (worked in the structural warranty side), fitness, and travel - I've always loved to learn and grow myself, but I have not built much for "retirement" (though not sure I will ever retire, I love entrepreneurship), was recently divorced and I'm around 40 - so I have a road ahead and all...so definitely want to grow some decent rental income within 10-15 years, but I was considering fix and flip for not only diversity, but it sounds like fix and flip might be a great way to get some capital, which I don't really have at this point. 

Here it is:1 - Take three full leg/thighs of chicken, boil them in water to get most of the grease off.2 - Cover the bottom of a lasagna pan with white rice.3 - Place the chicken on the rice, and cover rice with water to the point of making the rice wet...not to float the rice4 - with the skin side down, bake for 90 minutes at 3505 - Turn chicken over and baste, then bake chicken for another 30 minutes, or until the skin is crispy6 - Serve...no wait...That's my wife's recipe for chicken and rice.  

Here is what I'm seeing down here on the Panhandle of FL: 1) The impact of COVID-19 restrictions was significant, especially after the Governor of FL suspended vacation rentals in the state and the beaches were closed.2) As soon as rumors of the beaches re-opening started floating around, people started sending inquiries of making reservation.

There's the idea floating around that much of the reason REI and the stock market have done so well this round is because of the money that was pumped into the system during the GFC, and it's not because there was anything special about the fundamentals of any particular asset class. 

If they are a floating floor and the parts that click together are in good shape, it shouldn't be a problem.
