On the other hand, I've been a lender for over 30 years and I can say for certain that past predicts the future when it comes to paying bills.

I agree that for more significant renovations, hiring contractors that are experienced can help make timelines more predictable and avoid unnecessary delays. 

DOS or more commonly known as Event of default.Alienation of title is an event of default in most all debt instruments not usually located in the Note its in the mortgage  deed of trust etc.And along with other Events of Default  IE non payment of Insurance or tax's or waste these all give the lender the right to Accelerate the note but not the obligation..

I predict this bill will increase homelessness in Rochester NY or will force people to move outside of the city to find housing.

I've raised some money on my own and bought a few buildings but it's not a systemized process and the money coming in is not as predictable so looking to level up. 

Perhaps the most important of which is that its more predictable and more CONTROLLABLE.

We all know the issues with trying to predict appreciation but with how he says (and I’ve seen) that land is disappearing in the area I feel confident that 5% is a solid number to use.Between cash flow and appreciation, I believe a person would be coming up 21,000 a year.

The goal is to determine whether the government accurately adjusts DoD Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) rates and to develop a predictive model to calculate possible future BAH rates for specific locations.We have pulled rental data from Zillow and historical BAH rates from the DoD.

I think one of the biggest risks you face with Cash Out is interest rate risk.It's really difficult to predict where interest rates will be in a 2-5 year time period, so it can also be challenging to model out future mortgage rates.
