Risking your house to buy investment real estate could leave you in a pinch and having to make difficult decisions about your finances later.2.  

If you were in California you might feel the pinch more severely than how we have it so good, here in Tampa...but, I would not want to start a new project at this time with prices at the top.

But I'll take a tall white hot chocolate or hot apple cider from Starbucks almost anyday!!

Allows them the flexibility to make tough decisions in a pinch on their behalf.  

South grays ferry, sure, definitely not the same but the ones that are right across the street from GradHo especially considering OCF's new massive development that is replacing the chocolate factory definitely have higher values. 

@Benjamin Coons I did take out a zero interest credit card in case I get into a pinch it lasts for 15 months.  

Must be careful not to pinch a penny to lose a dollar (in opportunity costs from other deals).But if you're just talking about a retail agent doing a single deal with you, then I agree completely.

I read that the servicers are the ones being pinched with no money coming in with the obligation of paying the investor. 

With regards to contractor saving time and clients penny pinching materials, if you have it not deliver on site, then it simply means that you are paying for logistics on the contractor side, a trip and wait to home depot is about 1.5 hrs, while a call and delivery fee from supply houses is about 5-10 mins and $0-50/delivery (most are free or below $30 on my end).

We are probably at or near the top of the cycle in most areas, and when the unexpected happens (vacancy for a longer period or major repairs), you'll feel the pinch.
