Depending on your state law, that amount could be as little as $10-20.Then, once you secure or control the house with your option you want to sell that house as fast as you can so you can get to your fat 5-figure pay check.

If your end result was too lose 20 pounds, your leverage might be I will die 5 years earlier, I will continue to feel fat, or I wont be able to play sports with my son.5th What has caused me to fail in the past when I have tried to achieve the results that I desire?

But not a bad rate..If he doesn't want to drop pre-payments and you really want the financing (and you plan on holding), try to negotiate a declining prepayment penalty for the first few years when you expect it will have no impact on you.If he's trying to invest money 30 years at 6% secured by real estate, send him my contact info and I'll give him a nice fat note secured by my CA property and give him pre-payment penalties for the first 10-15 years..

They also seem fat enough that you that you should be able to cash flow even with a pricey 30% 2nd on it.
