They forged documents, have the assessor for king county as one of their CEOs (my property was in Clark county WA but my property title was changed in King county WA where he WAS the assessor) hsbc had to pay me and countless others for bad foreclosure practices and that caused them to go bankrupt and my loan was floating and I essentially owned home free and clear due to terms of the contract stating that if loan was to be sold that hsbc my husband and I and the new proposed lender had to all meet in person and sign new paperwork permitting the transfer of the loan which never happened.

Replacing the little float on the chain worked.Maybe this would work for you too.https://www.amazon.com/American-Standard-7381-129-200-0070A-Flapper-Chain/dp/B004XVO6ZC?

I think we will some more small hikes, and I think we will see some small cuts, but ultimately rates will continue floating in the 6% +/- range.  

Do you have the funds to float and pay the expenses to keep your units operating in a month like that where you are having to pay the mortgage out of our own pocket? 

They do make sheet vinyl that looks like wood and if you go to a flooring store usually they will have a much larger selection and can even save you money with different types of installation like going over exsisting floors with a floating vinyl sheet install. 

You may end up with a 75%ish LTV LoC you can use to float this fix until cash flow can pay it down.

At the end of the day, I have said it before and will say it again, EVERY real estate operator I know that has survived for 30+ years and, generally shown continued success is completely against floating rate loans.  

Floating rates have crushed some big multifamily syndications of late.

What happens if something spills and/or leaks under the floated flooring (like a cooking accident or the tenant getting wet out of the shower on a regular basis)?
