How IF you short sale the property.. then why wouldnt rent be cheaper than a bloated underwater mortgage payment!

We have closed few properties but as you said bloated ARV and double closing kills your client.

I've tried to eat before going to a restaurant to save money... but what ends up happening is I buy food at the restaurant because it smells so damn good, and end up bloated as hell on the couch afterwords, because I ate 2 meals lol.

I'll be a second voice to suggest ignoring the tariffs for the bloated MS Office and download a copy of OpenOffice (OpenOffice.org).  

Well I don't want to get too political on here.I guess I am considered a liberal because as of right now neither party is really making me jump up and down to vote for them.I believe Government is necessary TO AN EXTENT just like FREE ENTERPRISE.When one dominates the other the power swings too much in one direction and we are out of balance as a country.Obama keeps increasing the debt and create more bloat with Government programs.I don't like that.The unemployment rate in Washington is I believe 1 percent or so.The majority of other states are taking a bath with high unemployment.The Republicans still haven't figured out that to win an election you have to win the middle (undecided) voters !

They LOVE to knead in bloated up-charges to standard repair calls.

That budget shortage will fall on your end, hence the contractor will leave the job unfinished, issue forced change orders (or really bloated prices), or something similarly unpleasant to you.

Everyone works from home now and even when the orders are lifted do you really think the top executives aren’t going to start unloading their over-bloated leases in order to downsize and reduce the amount of workspace and bottom-line costs?

A very large percentage of discretionary income for many people was going to these bloated health care plans.  

And then we all complain about bloated government, high taxes, etc.
