It's a small, low cost condo near a bus line in Aurora IL.thanksKen

I have incredible leverage now.Over time, let's say the house value has doubled to 400K after a prolonged upcycle in the market and my mortgage is down to 125K.

I had also set up a plan through guidant financial to purchase a busness but the opportunity turned bad and we never used the corporation. the set up cost was steep. $5,000 but the service was good as far as it went. hope this helps
