After that HML will lighten up and you will be able to negotiate with lenders and get them to be competitive.

Otherwise, the close timeframe is a bit concerning but where we are targeting, it may not be a disqualifying factor because as-is properties do not sell at lightening fast speed. 

My husbands truck that we use to pull our 44 ft. toy hauler RV from job to job was inconvently struck by lightening a month ago.

My husband and I took the old fridge apart as much as we could to lighten it for them. 

I like to make yearly goals in each area of my life but here I will share only some of my real estate goals for 2020: Sell 19% of one of my real estate companies for 400K.Separate my business finances better by taking 250k of that money and pay off business debt from my other businesses that I have used to fund the acquisition of properties in my main real estate business.Use the other 150k to continue purchasing properties in the Triad area of North Carolina.Purchase 36 single family properties (24 in Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and High Point, and 12 in Arizona) and lease them out using the lease option strategy.Purchase a 30 pad mobile home park with 10 units already rented and an additional 20 pads available to rent out, improve advertising and double the value of the park and basically BRRRR the mobile home park.Go on the Investor Summit at Sea real estate cruise with the Real Estate Guys, Robert Helms and Russell Grey.Bring on one or two more assistants to lighten our work load and systematize our businesses better.Appear on 10 more podcasts to increase brand awareness in order to raise money for our real estate deals.Get 20 real estate coaching clients and help them acquire their first, second, or third property.Increase cash flow by another 5k this year.

But if the bank undergoes a restructuring event, or wants to lighten its books in a certain area, they'll immediately claim default and begin the foreclosure process.

If the house burns down gets struck by lightening or what ever between now and when it goes before the court we would still be liable to pay what we bid, there is no get out of bid clause. 

Also, could you househack or Airbnb to get some additional cash flow to help lighten the load?.

If it’s weed Then lighten up .. if it’s crack or meth then you got problems don’t ask me how I know lol 

@John Mayer i completely agree with @Dan Mackin. there was a short period a few years ago where i took a bit of time to find a lender that was okay with rent by the room but i found a few and it certainly seems like they have lightened up lately. as you know, happy to help with anything rent by the room (or otherwise)!
