Quote from @Saul Vargas: looking in Phoenix or Vegas, do you guys have a better market on mind?

The first pool claim that comes to mind is obviously drowning, but pool claims can come in all shapes and sizes. 

One who is active still and recently did a case study write up like this is Don Konipol, the other pops on every now and again and did a BP episode many years ago Aaron Mazzrillo so search those two names and read some threads.A more likely scenario is not what you mentioned as the ever growing note/value deal, at least not as outlined.

So basically in my mind this would not be a great financial move as we be accruing about 200k more in debt if we were to sell one house and take the cash from there and use it as a down payment.

Upon move-in, appliances, cabinets, floors and walls all had built-up grime and residue from your habitation of the home.Infestation of bugs, pests and rodents-There was no attempt to treat the house for pests, as evidenced by the more than 15 spiders we have already seen in the basement, and the live, active wasp nest in the patio fence.Floors, stairways and railings in poor condition-The carpets are stained and smelly.

Keep in mind you'll generally need 20-30 days to refinance! 

I’m currently working on a deal in Fort Lauderdale & actively looking for financing solutions like hard money or private lending.

I did notice end of 2024 to be more active and January to continue that streak compared to 2023 and start of 2024.

@Eric E.UBIT only comes into play in an IRA on leveraged real estate and running an active business.

Now do i think human activities can have impact on this, 100%.
