The HGTV show Good Bones does most of their home renovations there and the market has just exploded. 

Thanks for the warm welcomes, i'll be sure to continue to peruse BP; hopefully, my brain won't explode with all the knowledge to be had on here.

I've seen so many families that implode/explode when money is involved.

The property has obviously exploded in value.

For example, if a plumber comes to your multifamily and messes up the gas line and the place explodes.

Hi guys, as conventional rates are exploding with the fed interest hikes, hard/private lenders is a good pairing after accessing your equity on your house hack primaries through a HELOC, even at an ARM.

I wonder what happened to the ultra long term holders who bough in the last 5 to 10 years of its glory before the burbs up north exploded?

Even though the multifamily/condo market is exploding and there are loan incentives for housing from the government it is not easy for people to get a loan from a bank (rates are terrible anyway)So what happens is developers offer financing if you buy pre-built, at a discount.

Not sure how much effect of any company leaving is having as tech is still exploding all over.

Doors and windows, insulation ......etc....Looking back now, It felt like my head was going to explode by having to learn all different trades all at once while almost all the deadlines were broke. ( My wife called my the "two weeks contractor" because i told her so often for months, that we will be done In two weeks. :) I learned a lot and it comes very handy now when I hire contractors for our rentals,  BUT I am not sure if I would do it again knowing what I know now.
