or in other words, increasingly individuals/business want to spend more money while they have less available to them. even via credit or 'creative' funding. at least as of Jan 2014 lenders are bound by the 'New Qualified (QM) Rule' at a nationwide level by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which mandates that even 'PRIVATE' loans require the borrower’s total documented debt to income (DTI) including the loan payment isn’t over 43%.so seems more and more than ever resort to creating the facade that they do in order to be taken seriously and appear to be busy actively 'investing' yet more and more properties are in/out/in/out of contract like musical chairs these days until they 'finally' close after much wasted time.http://cashformyclosing.com/proof-of-funds/the plethora of sites out there offering 'proof of funds' letters - some like the above offering proof of 'unlimited' funds for a low monthly 'subscription' really take the cake in what 'proof of funds' is apparently being belittled to. investing in the business arena used to mean expending money for future profit; i'm not sure of the scope of what it means nowadays anymore though.

Now I have seen some logic that the water and sewer bill can be expended 2/3.

Even through you may be seeking only cash-flow, even if the hime does not appreciate, as long as the money you intend on expending will enhance the value of the asset to a New ARV, if this is something that fits your strategy why not.

I have always considered wet/shop vacs as expendable. between wet vacuming the pontoon boat or cleaning up after a sheetrock job, mine don't last too long.

Hi everyone I'm trying to figure it out how to go about buying appliances for my two unit building without expending a lot of money.this is my very first investment property and Im on a extreme budget to make my numbers work. so I'm wondering if I should buy New or Used and where to buy it from and also if I should consider specific brands.

Meaning, there was no $$$ in it for him and there were more important things to expend my energies on.Just one reporter's opinion but it doesn't sound like were talking about a lot of money here; of course that's all relative.

In all economic transactions time and money are expended.

Each marginal dollar is less valuable and I don't expend the same effort as I used to for money.

How quickly and how much effort do you want to expend to get a deal that meets your 20% COC goal?

When the 'low bid' number is already within the range of acceptable profit, the smart business person who has already expended a fixed amount of their limited company resources to get near the finish line of the sales process, the smart one is going to short-cut the the process by at least 'taking a shot' at it and closing the sale immediately rather than submitting a blind bid.
