It's impossible for them to hit the third close date and it's not likely they could hit any close date so they back out.I am feeling as if I was mislead. 

(I personally prefer $2M/year and I think that cash flow is plenty enough to cover any mortgage risk along the way, but there's no doubt some people would feel more comfortable sticking to the $24,000/year and that's totally cool too!)

My second house was under contract before it was even listed, but the combination of my GC disappearing and having to restart the permitting process for the carport in March right at the start of Corona lock downs dragged that out and eventually feel out of contract.

So when I see an advertisement like this I feel like it would be a waste of my time and money, but perhaps interesting for others. 

Everyone will tell you it’s great to get started early, or you can just move after a year, but in the current environment in our region the rent your property will generate after you move out will likely be less than your mortgage, if you are tied to the area and feel confident you want to stay in whatever property you buy for 3-5 years go for it, if you want flexibility rent and throw that money into and index fund. 

I specifically want to call out one of their Senior Accounts Associate, Charlotte Cunningham, who helped me through the process on my first purchase as I needed to buy a sizable amount of furniture quickly and she was able to help me make moves quickly...and didn't make me feel bad whatsoever when I pulled back a few items at the last minute I was able to find them cheaper elsewhere.

Feel free to PM!

Feel free to reach out if you have any advice for a newcomer or if you're also investing in the Kirkland area!

This is a "me" assumption: I assuming that I made a mistake somewhere in my analysis, so please feel free to show me. :) I learn a lot more from my mistakes than what I (very occasionally) get right on the first pass.

Hope all of that makes sense but feel free to post with anything else.
