I'm sorry, John C, but that visual is too funny!

If you need a visual, go to any amortization table and see how each month the interest and principal is allocated, and how it shifts after year 5, 10, 20....and so forth. 

I'm a visual person and I need to see something be done before all the pieces of the puzzle click together for me.

The kitchen is straight out of the 70's, and there are some nicely dated frilly curtains on all the windows, but based on visual inspection the house itself seems in great shape (Pending professional inspection). 

:)Also, welcome to BP.A visual inspection will tell you if it is worth taking it to another level.  

Park is pretty nicely maintained overall and much more visually attractive than park 2.

Maybe we run in different circles where different terminology is used, but I can tell you that if you call a loan officer at a bank that does residential financing and say "single-family home", they are not visualizing a 4-unit building in their head.

When we visualize the outcome of our actions or the lack there of we tend to strike our own match (under our feet).

You didn’t post any numbers but I would want it to be at least 25-30 percent below ARV for purchase price and I would still want to do my own Visual walk through.
