In other words, you're not being punished for giving $14,000 in charity.

Sounds like you are a glutton for punishment

It was a good appreciator and went on from there to increase 4 times from that point.The question is, if a property is good at appreciating do you punish it by dumping it and buying something that cash flows but no longer appreciates?

Otherwise it's not really a good idea to buy down a rate unless you know you'll have that note long term at about 12 years or more.You can make additional payments to principal at any time without penalty and such penalties are rare now and can be unlawful but you need to read the note.Closing costs vary with lenders, closing companies and with the types of loans as well as transactions depending on requirements.

So you are now the legal owner, and have the right to proceed with an eviction (unlawful detainer action) provided the tenants don't have a lease that you need to honor and you have a legal cause to do so.

“Real estate appraiser” means a person who engages in real estate appraisal activity for a fee or other valuable consideration;Except as provided in § 62-39-104, after December 31, 1991, it is unlawful for anyone to solicit an appraisal assignment, or prepare an appraisal or an appraisal report relating to real estate or real property in this state, without first obtaining a real estate appraiser's license or certificate.Now that's Tennessee, not Arizona, but I can see how a Real Estate Appraisal Commission could legitimately question the legality of online "valuations" of real estate when looking at laws similar to these.

B won't deal with A any longer if A did push it.When you hear about these cases paying off is when a seller terminates a contract and turns around and sells to a buyer who was shown the property by the agent that was cut out or was the procuring cause of the sale.This clause in a listing agreement is there to protect the listing agent and broker in those cases, not as a punishment to get even with a seller who was informed by his sister-in-law that she could do the listing on a co-broke arrangement with one of her buddies who is in the area.

She told us that it is unlawful for us to change the key or put in a chain, and she was within her rights as an owner to walk in anytime she likes.

People get punished severely because of this LOL
