It would be like if someone prepared to sell by painting to create fresh visual interest, but chose fuscia and lime green...those colors would certainly catch the eye but I'd never claim that they overdid the curb appeal by painting with too much visual interest.

Read "Long-Distance Real Estate Investing" by David Greene for starters.

The combination of generating extra green cash with a biz and then investing in real estate for long term weath is the way to do it.

My experience has always been better with a local lender.With that said, I am reaching out to David Greene's The One Brokerage about a refinance.

@Jaycee Greene this is in Kansas City.
