We moved to florida from western NC and bought a house while still trying to sell our old house in NC...Well, it isnt selling.We have been paying both mortgages for several months now, and are bleeding money every month.It is too expensive, we cannot afford to continue doing this.So, we are entertaining lease options.We got an offer of 900 month rent, with 3500 down on 18month term.Our mortgage is 1600 a month as we paid 240K for the house only a couple of years ago.So this will not nearly cover our monthly expenses.

Hello everyone, I have always entertained the idea of being a real estate investor, but was a young twenty something who never got it together.

Oil and natural gas are biggies here--but we've also been blessed by major downtown development: a new NBA franchise, a convention/restaurant/entertainment hub around our new Riverwalk, a new and expanding Dell facilitiy, Tinker Air Force Base, etc.

So, when they call me with questions about the property I give them the verbal heads up that the lender is already entertaining two offers.

I believe it will be packed with the local McCain voters seeking mouse entertainment as a form of self medication to deal with the reality that we're going to be socialists for the next 8 years.

You need to work on that jealousy thing, though, or you'll find yourself having a real hard time in the entertainment biz.

I'm really entertained by those starting out themselves, who believe themselves to be from affluent backgrounds (new money families) when they find out they qualify for benefits or can't qualify on their own steam for a median priced home.

I view gambling more as entertainment than a way to make money, its the experience.

Will entertain all proformas.michael

But why would the mortgage co. insist the auction take place rather than entertain an offer to buy.This area is a little uncharted for me.
