Medford (North Boston) happens to be a low supply/high demand market so I absolutely need to get more comfortable with consistent rent increases but those increases need to be researched and in line with the market. 

My story, with 1/1000th his wealth (or less.) builds on Jay’s idea of zero debt (I only have a dozen homes worth mid to high 7 figures, but I owe zero.), along with his idea of where you come from and your life experience determines what you need to feel like you couldn’t spend all your money without wasting it.

I am a realtor and believe my income will not be as high as it has been for the past few years moving forward. 

Hopefully, the client can find a resolution and use this as a learning opportunity to avoid similar issues in the future. 

All that matters is that buyers feel like rates are high and are reluctant to buy.

If that's not in the cards I highly recommend you wait to make this purchase.

The Legends stuff go on sale all the time and are pretty high quality.I have this one at home - https://www.atgames.us/products/legends-gamer-proSurprising quality and you can load a different firmware and have access to over 1000 old arcade games.

That seems suddenly shady.My bank is reversing the charges and blacklisting them.Like I said, it's a shame as I really had high hopes for this working.Maybe I'll find something else someday.
