You couldn't possibly have exhausted the opportunities there.  

So, I vetted about 10 realtors and interviewed the first one I met with at our first showing with an exhaustive list of questions I found and it turns out he was an excellent fit. 

BTW, i work a good full time job so i do not need the cash flow to live on.Thanks in advance for any help and I would respectfully ask that we stay on topic ( no contacts or comments on "helping" me get a 30 yr fixed...please assume that effort is exhausted...for now at least)

I'm always too burned out and exhausted at the end of the day to be productive so this is a great alternative. 

If we get into a bind finding more financing after we exhaust all our conventional loan options, we may pay some off to be able to buy more that way if it makes sense at that time.  

Like Nick said, I would be very hesitant to touch your nest egg without at least exhausting or thoroughly evaluating all the other possibilities in your tool belt.  

I ended up getting the listing as an agent, but only after I exhausted all possibilities of a cash sale to one of my best investors/partners.  

My personal finances are solid—it will still take me a couple years to save enough to buy and rehab a place with 100% cash.I’ve exhausted every person in my life to try and find money to use (I come from a very poor family and haven’t lived in this city for long).I have enough in cash + 401k loan and a personal loan to buy and fix up low cost, smaller houses in “C” areas.

Exhausting dealing with them already.

I think the other important factor is most of the experienced and real investors here have exhausted or would never qualify for good financing.
