Can the spouses participation be combined? 

The most recent job fair featured over 20,000 open positions.In ConclusionWhile nothing is guaranteed, the combination of population growth and limited land for expansion virtually assures that prices and rents will continue to increase.Thanks for reading my post.

The deal with Mattress Warehouse addresses antitrust concerns raised by the FTC, which has challenged the merger, fearing it would stifle competition and raise prices.Tempur Sealy expects the acquisition, combined with the divestiture, to solidify its market dominance, with over 2,800 retail locations worldwide.

Honestly the high fees combined with lack of transparency and high appraisal costs, a whole month of UW (longer than normal), etc. would make me want to switch lenders right away because IME the lenders with high fees and high appraisal costs who drag their feet like this also tend to be the ones to continue delaying, have things get stuck in underwriting, say one thing while delivering another, have poor communication especially between UW and origination, bad customer service, can't close when they say they will, etc. and it can be a total nightmare. 

With the lower LTVs offered by senior lenders these days, it may be tempting to look at preferred equity and it may make sense since technically it is cheaper than LP equity, but also keep in mind they have a higher liquidation preference (obviously) but will often want all the cashflow (or a majority of it) to come to them before the LP investors and will also want large reserves, so make sure you model out the cashflows and understand the end-to-end deal with the preferred equity investors.We have some institutional investors with whom we did a combination of a pref and JV deal and it worked quite well for everyone including them and the LP investors.

A combination of mortgage notes for cash flow and desirable properties in high appreciation areas (not cheap, undesirable properties in the Midwest.)

And don’t mistake on purpose actions for meanness or lack of sympathy   My job after all of the diatribe and crap is to produce the highest level of profitability possible   It’s not to make friends    

I would recommend a combination of a house-hack and an investment property depending on your current cash position, short-term and long-term goals.
