They’re also the biggest buyers of illegal elephant tusks and luxury items.Yeah, we’re all likely dead by then unless we switch our global economy from a oil based economy to a renewable energy economy.

Here's why:Aluminum windows last the longest.Tempered or laminated glass are both stronger than plain annealed glass (laminated is just a tick more energy efficient).MUCH cheaper than good quality custom sized impact windows both in initial cost and replacement cost (I doubt that you will find exact fit factory replacements)Covering them with a permanent, crystal clear, UV filtering shutter will prolong the life of the window, eliminate water leaks and window maintenance.Permanent shutters don't break so there's no replacement cost and offer continuous protection whether you're home or away.Increases home resale valueIf you simply want to flip the place, go to a cheap PVC impact window supplier and get a list of standard sizes and modify your openings to fit.

For that, a contractor can put something together that requires less energy and wont be thinking their is a possible job coming up...

The key is not to get too sucked in where you are wasting a lot of energy and time.It is probably easiest to just send them the requested letter.   

@Kole Kingslien  Guidelines for land contract:- Payoff of Installment Land Contract Requirements When the proceeds of a mortgage loan are used to pay off the outstanding balance on aninstallment land contract (also known as contract or bond for deed) that was executed within the12 months preceding the date of the loan application, Fannie Mae will consider the mortgageloan to be a purchase money mortgage loan.The LTV ratio for the mortgage loan must be determined by dividing the new loan amount by thelesser of the total acquisition cost (defined as the purchase price indicated in the land contract,plus any costs the purchaser incurs for rehabilitation, renovation, or energy conservationimprovements) or the appraised value of the property at the time the new mortgage loan isclosed.

Unless there is something on the line for me, I am not going to be willing to invest my energy to learning about it.

So it usually seems IMPOSSIBLE to find the time, energy or money to pursue it further, but we have both decided to dedicate ourselves towards the long-term goal of transitioning into successful, full-time investors.

So sweet and tender and happy full of energy when they first start out.

I wouldn't waste energy trying to guess what is going on in the background.

Not due to the demographics,but due to the lack of energy and it’s lack of potential on many issues,it’s just not a place anyone I know would it be on the top of their list or even on their list.
