Or better still try restraining that impulse to post completely.

If someone does buy in normal day-to-day life, they do so at deeply discounted rates because someone who made an impulse buy under the high pressure tactics wants to unload it, often times because their maintenance fees were hiked up.

One is often impulse spending, the other is investing in yourself. 

It usually take some forethought to commit white collar crime, while a lot of other felonies are due to poor impulse control.

Anyway - all my rambling aside - hang in there, keep everyone posted with your progress, and most of all, don't give in to impulse to just do *something*; keep searching, hunting, and looking - and you'll find what you are looking for that meets your criteria.

At this moment in my life impulse is telling me to leverage & my gut feeling is telling me to stay patient for potential ALL cash deals as I build up from the rental income.

Irresponsible and impulsive people is who!

They like to save time by outsourcing to professionals (You), they want to work with someone they ("feel" important word) sophisticated, sharp, an expert in his field (whether you are or not).Middle class people want to feel like they're getting a deal.Poor people are opportunistic, more impulsive but are rarely qualified and you probably shouldn't sell to them.

I signed up for Mashvisor about 2 months ago, kind of on impulse after getting the initial walkthrough. 

@Rachel Fazio I'm pretty impulsive and all for diving in head first, but when the W2 goes away and there is no real experience for the bank to trust in, hes going to have to turn to HML which is much more expensive than banks especially with the lack of experience.
