This seems right up your alley, @Lorien Rollins

The 10% different seems small but it can make the difference between getting foreclosed or not.

Looking for some advice if this seems normal for closing costs on this piece of Land my wife and I are trying to buy.

A lot of buyers in the past couple years purchased with the intent to rent their homes on a short-term basis (Airbnb) which caused prices to shoot up and for one reason or another, a lot of these buyers are deciding to cash out which is creating a large inventory of homes in residential neighborhoods and putting downside pressure on home prices.We are definitely seeing home prices in residential neighborhoods coming down a lot and with the high level of inventory, there seems to be more room to come down.Home prices on acreage in the more affluent parts of Joshua Tree and Yucca Valley (south of the 62 Highway) are slower to come down.

Interesting seems like a tricky strategy for a first investment but could certainly work out if done adeptly.

I’d like to listen to the episode again but I can’t seem to find it! 

Doesn't seem like a smart ROI move for Fanny Mae, in my opinion. 

This is how a 19-year-old investor in my area got his first 2 duplexes (4 units before he turned 21)  Tech sales seems interesting to me.

Does that seem correct?

Hi Brian, Thank you for such a detailed response. 1. yeah his justification for only wanting bank financing does seem a little silly but he’s stubborn. 2.
