It was the most instrumental thing to get me there.

Whoever the new mayor will be, s/he will be instrumental in either bringing back New York City or continuing its downward spiral.  

Those are antiquated instruments used primarily as predatory devices.  

Priority has nothing to do with loan balances and even the recorded date of the instrument.

I only made a good judgement call because of Brandon and Heather Turner's book on Managing Rental Properties, it has been instrumental in doing our first deal!

@ Michael swan - I get it that you are enthusiastic about your new strategy, and that is a good thing...we should all be....That said, I do feel your 50 vs 160 comparison is biased to the point that it can be misleading... you left out a coupe of very important considerations for the comparison to be fair and complete, things such as passive vs active, future appreciation, and depreciation, to name a few...And 2 years of smooth ride is NOTHING in RE... if you go thru a full cycle of up AND DOWN, and your strategy still works, then it is true success story...

If so, that would be quite the coup for you.And regarding the subject at hand, You can buy and leverage property in a solo 401k or IRA or for cash Dave Ramsey style.

Section 1947.3 defines "electronic transfer" broadly, essentially any transfer of funds not initiated by a check or other paper "instrument," including transfer via computer, telephone or point-of-sale contact or direct deposit permitting a financial institution to debit your account.

I have family and friends with cash who are itching to get securitized higher yielding instruments, and selling the notes I have could be a great way to increase my returns and their returns.

You need to be asking them all about their habits, routines, work hours, do they have weird hobbies or loud instruments.
