Businesses that produce / use these commodities would have to pass those fluctuations through to the consumer immediately (or at least within their credit floats), the net result being that the price of gas (or any other commodity) would fluctuate by very large amounts very often.Speculators bear all that risk of price fluctuation in the interim between production and delivery and create the liquidity needed for businesses to lock in the sales price of a good they haven't yet produced (or the purchase price of a good they need to use in production).

Now rates have plummeted quite a bit and I am thinking of asking my lender to provide me rate lock float down option.

Seller floated a three-year balloon loan the rents of which more than covered.

If you have specific numbers you would like to float by me let me know but the above strategy is one of the better ones to use.

This is an idea we are floating around and seriously considering.

Don't walk away - run.For that amount of money (assuming 1st / Last / SD) and $250 floating repair fee, I'd go straight to the bank and get pre-qualified for a home loan, and hit up your favorite local Realtor on the way back.  

I am curious to know if this risk can be mitigated through a prepayment penalty of any amount to the end-buyer towards this difference if it applies.Just trying to think creatively here without floating off too far.

The menu bar floats, but does not stay stuck to the top of the view window ... sometimes it's at the top, other times it's 40% of the way down the screen overlayed on other content and occasionally it's on the bottom.When the menu bar is not at the top of the screen, it is not always operational.I'll see if I can grab a better screen shot.

Go with a glue down, not a click together/floating floor.

This scenario yields about a +$5000 per year surplus, so overall, these two retirement properties that I would own 100% (not fractional/timeshare) creates a breakeven financial result, and they are appreciating assets (hopefully).Because of the peak patterns and the overlap of the schedules, cash flow remains positive in every month of the year, so I don't have to float any expenses.
