I have been offered 7% for an$100k loan from an international lender, and am not sure if I should taken the risk..

Unless they're wrecking the property or engaging in criminal activity, a long-term tenant can be a blessing.

Also, if anything ever happens, like say a fire starts in the basement duplex and travels up the stairwell you illegally built killing everyone inside, then you are not only talking financial liability but criminal liability as well.

Goodman/Amana, Lennox/Armstrong/Concord, Trane/American Standard, Carrier/Payne/Bryant/Tempstar.Most internal HVAC equipment is made by fewer manufacturers...Emerson, Honeywell and Johnson Controls.IMO, the biggest difference is the installer and the reason why some brands get higher ratings by consumers is they are selective about who they allow to install their brands.Check out this link.  

I use the SmartMove application through Transunion and they both have good credit, no criminal, or eviction history. 

I'm getting married next month, and have been feeling the pressure to buy a condo, that would serve as a home base for me and my wife when I'm in between international assignments (10 days each 4 months) and would hold me and my wife's things (wedding gifts, furniture etc)My biggest problem is that we would only live in the condo about 20% of year, as we would be traveling abroad as part of my job.

I get calls from international clients all the time.

(See problem #1) That being said the nissan probably has more internal room than my truck does even with the big 4 doors.

We do a credit, criminal, eviction history as well as verify employment by either current paystub's and we ask for two months back.
