I took apart my TV (a few times, and the toaster) when I was 11 and after a little parental lecture, they encouraged it (this time with Goodwill appliances).

Any other international real estate discussion is encouraged here.

What's most encouraging is the Mayor's decision to do what's financially best for the City of Philadelphia despite being unpopular by many.

Banks and credit card issuers don’t mind you adding immediate family members, in fact that’s often encouraged, but they don’t want you selling the tradelines.

This was such an encouraging post. 

It's encouraging and a bit discouraging but I think that is the nature of the business.

If you're an investor or a general partner facing similar challenges, I encourage prudence and reflection before funneling resources into uncertain ventures, building a bridge to no where as something where I did with my personal capital.

Akin to the rest of American society.

Thank you for your words of encouragement.

Sorry, Unfortunately Voice to Text didn't work.First Point, is as a society we look at home ownership the wrong way, a personal residence is a liability vs buying investment property which is an asset.
