@Bob Ross The factors that contribute to an investment being worthwhile or not are not as complex as people think.People complicate these factors in an attempt to delegate responsibility to non-emotional rationale and maintain loyalty to the "does it pencil?"

UGHHH so annoying and frustrating and emotional roller coaster.

But rates being as low as they were was always going to be a temporary thing.

More often than not, Meghan does not contribute to the business besides the emotional support and criticizing his parking.Meghan's portion of the expenses does not count then, it is personal.

You don’t want to go bust paying more than the property is worth to you (and make no mistake, some investors may have plans for the that make it far more valuable to them..just means it wasn’t the right spot for you).It can be a lot of work and stressful at times, but the rule I was taught when starting out is “don’t get emotional about real estate.”

The property is just the temporary resting place for that equity (dead cash) until it is released and starts working for you.  1 to 1, or 5 to 1...which would you rather have?

Just knowing that his decision was based on sheer emotion (because how dare anyone challenge him), and not based on what's "fair," should be enough for me.

The better question; what emotional damage is within these people who feel compelled to broadcast ridiculous hyperbolae to the masses. 

That however takes having sufficient ready cash on hand, but most of all a rock steady emotional constitution when the rest of the world is running down the street naked with their hair on fire screaming that the world is coming to an end (so run for your life and sell everything that you own).

Also, I’m planning on moving in no more than 3 months, and she’s aware so I’m not sure why she wants to be so dramatic, I suspect some emotional issues.
