To implement these regulations they are redefining seller financing as loan origination, even though no money is actually loaned to the buyer under an installment sale contract The new regulations will effectively end all investor installment sales and will probably apply to lease options as well.To stop these regulations from being implemented, please submit our comments at www.regulations.gov.

I'm pretty sure I could get that knocked off too, since I speak the appraisal lingo and they would be hard pressed to redefine "market value", but then how do I explain to a buyer or their appraiser/lender why my asking price is more than twice the assessed value?

THEIR friends WILL remain employed, YOUR friends, employed or not, WILL pay the freight of government's engine of Change...Survive anyway - it truly ticks 'em off.

At this point in life I would rather pay the freight to have the job done right the first time.

I like the cheap ones sold at harbor freight ($80-90).  

Still plugging away on my day job with FedEx Freight.

We are now redefining our business to a marketing monster.

To answer the "why" it's to become my own boss doing what I love and building a team to keep the freight train growing exponentially.

Some of it was 45 degree ceiling and a harbor freight lift did the trick.
