And very rarely does a market hold it's position measured over decades as there is a natural cycle of growth, maturity, decline, redevelopment, growth, maturity, decline, redev...... - OPPORTUNITY COST: The 1 constant in life is CHANGE.

In Canada, for example, the average mortgage term is 5-years, so every 5-years you renew your mortgage and have the opportunity to pay down as much as you would like (if you wanted to pay more than the payment restrictions of a fixed-rate mortgage).If you want to pay down your mortgage more quickly and cannot afford to increase your payment, simply switching from the default monthly mortgage payment to accelerated bi-weekly payments will reduce your amortization by ~12% (the extra payment per year from the accelerated part) and reduce the overall interest paid by slightly more (~14%).Naturally, if you increase the bi-weekly payment, you will pay down the mortgage more quickly.  

Then since your out of control your subject to human nature.

By nature a business is all about cash flow, equity is second.

Tools were recovered and pest control was terminated.So we are naturally in a very secure area in one of the safest cities in CA.  

So, back to the original question of what if you just found natural buyers for homes?  

Quote from @Stuart Udis: The natural buyer of the entry level SF homes have limited cash and therefore the biggest obstacle they face is funds to close.

The key factor is the amount paid and the nature of the payment, not the payment method.

While it’s not impossible to close in mid December and still meet all requirements of the STR loophole, it will be extremely difficult due to the nature of hitting 150 hours, having it rented for 15 days or greater and having the avg stay be no greater than 7 days and not a decimal more.

I also assume a 3-4% yearly rent increase, which naturally increases the vacancy and repair amounts over time.
