Why people sell - Lifestyle changeSick of being a landlordor a BALLOON PAYMENT IS COMING DUE AND THEY HAVE TO EITHER SELL OR STROKE A CHECK

And, I might add, everyone likes to be complemented, guys in the trades will try a little harder to do good work if you stroke their egos.

@Andy Whitcomb The business is called "A Stroke of Excellence", based out of Port Orchard.  

I can only imagine what would happen the moment an AirBNB guest accidentally broke something, was unintentionally loud, arrived at 11:00 at night and made some noise or what have you.Offering some dirty, filthy money in exchange for increased opportunities to make yourself even wealthier (like Scrooge McDuck doing the back stroke in a pile of gold coins), will not be received well.  

*Confetti trickles across the blissful New Years’ sky, backlit by *sparkling fireworks* *A passionate kiss* at the stroke of midnight, etc, etc..

Not only that, but lending to the poor also became a qualification for take overs and mergers, if you had not lent enough to the poor, then a take over would be blocked.So in one stroke, ability to repay took second place to other things.Mortgages were then made, packaged up into so called bonds and sold to investors (not re investors, but people like pensions companies etc).In 2006 a lot of these packaged mortgages were found to have deficiencies, eg people not repaying, and the investors holding these investments started disposing of them.Banks were asking accountancy firms in the City of London and Wall Street to start unpacking each one of these instruments to redo e paperwork and pull out the bad loans and then repackage them.The Banks were offering in London £50,000 to redo one of these bonds (for a better word) and offer insurance on the bond after it was repackaged, the auditing and accountancy firms asked for £250,000 per bond and no insurance. 

Different strokes for different folks and all.
