The Vivid Vision exercise really does work - but it takes some VERY INTENTIONAL time. 

I realize no one has a crystal ball, but I see no scenario where the housing shortage did not get worst in coastal CA by the elimination of 1000s of homes.As stated I agree with your sentiment. 

If a person put's themself into a situation where a lender can exercise a DOS, you better have contingency plan's for "if".

I have found enough business and made enough money not to need to expand outside of this market.Section 8 is a whole different ball game but I find the program is unique in that it's a 3-party relationship adding the variable of a government agency.

PS I finally had a Rueben ball last trip into Cleveland  gut bomb for sure :) Yea definitely some artery cloggers.

Quote from @Hanna Brown: @Jay Hinrichs If the bidder at the auction pays cash for keys to get the homeowner out, does the person redeeming from the owner position (exercising rights of redemption w/in 180 days) have to reimburse them for those costs they paid to get the homeowner out? 

If you intend on putting in 50 low ball offers a month, make sure your Realtor knows and is ok with that amount of legwork (because it's a lot).

@John McKee I am here for the more pickle ball.

I know this sounds a bit like a weather forecast - "Sunny with a chance of rain" - but my crystal ball seems to be on the fritz right now.Best regards, Stevan
