Background: We travelled to Italy a year ago and fell in love and recently found out that my brother-in-law is going to be stationed in Italy.

However, rates have since moved upward.A 30-year fixed rate mortgage is once again sitting around 7% interest:The real estate industry hoped 2024 would see a recovery in which mortgage rates fell and home sales climbed.

I also got involved with a builder in Florida who has yet to produce the first of three houses they're contracted to build, which was a major hit to my available funds as well, setting me further behind.I also figured if I fell a little behind in saving (18 months instead of 12 months for example), I'd still be making progress.

Any special process or just fell them and skid them to a landing deck them then haul them off ? 

Then it all fell through and of course had no backup from them since they aren’t affiliated in any way.

Yearly increases of 5-10% (based on the local market) vs big jumps when you fell way behind, keeps you on pace but helps keep turnover down 

It’s sad because I fell for all the lies.

Quote from @Jordan Sachs: A dead tree from the property next door fell on the garage of one of my properties.

One was the steps were a few inches off of code in height, and the railing broke when the guy fell. 

There were always prostitutes on the corner of my street when I lived in Hollywood, but ironically, no homeless people.
