I think it should be correlated with price/risk.If I'm all in at 85K and expect a quick sale at 120K (less commission and closing costs/buyer contribution to CC), I'd guess my net sp at 108K, resulting in a profit of 20K+, should I do it?

I would highly doubt that they would charge you already, like steve said, Pre-qual is not an application.Did he specifically ask you for a CC to cover the cost?

$120K - $2.4K (CC) - $6K (commissions) - $0 (no liens) - $1.6K (legal) = $110K When comparing your $110K Net Short Sale offer to the $115K estimate Net as an REO, they will not accept your offer.

Hi, I'm waiting til Sep/Oct, maybe Nov. 4.50% with one point & usual CC. that's what I'm waiting for. 24 is on, gotta go, LOL!

Well, after winning the bid on it close to 2 mo ago and having my CC promptly charged for it, it's taking now some 2-3 mo and a lot of paperwork submitted on my part to "promise" the US defense dept that I'm not going to ship/export this lousy trailer (older than myself) to some foreign country, so they can get a hold of our military secrets.

Sometimes the price of the house, including commissions, then commission comp Risse (CC) is included.

I'm not sure if I have limited credit, but I don't think I do seeing as I have nothing on my credit report. ...You have stated the difference between secured CC and debit cards - you just aren't saying it outright.

Do we have a largely uneducated public that can be easily steered towards higher paying cc proerties by dishonest Realtors outthere?

I recently bought a home for my family and I have a slightly high dti between that and cc's.

Although "double dip" is the term du jour these days, I have a hard time calling it a double dip because I don't believe the economic numbers have ever been all that rosy since 2007.If people were using CC's and HELOC's to live and spend beyond their means then we are in for a LONG time of lowered spending = less profits and subsequently less jobs; It's a simple formula.Jobs is the real issue, and job losses are ultimately derived from lost profits - which are going to remain stagnate.
