They are building a battery factory not far from here that will employ over 2,000 people and we are all wondering were the workers will be "transplanted" from.Thanks for the feed back.

Then you contact the homeowner, work out a quick cash payment for a QCD deal, pay off the HOA to stop foreclosure, and then you can rent out the property for years for pure profit without ever having to pay the original mortgage.

Hey Jay,I'm using the CUMPRINC( ) function in Excel that will calculate the accrued equity based on the rates/terms of a fully amortized loan.I'm not sure what your formula is calculating, but as best I can tell, it's just pure coincidence that it's anywhere close to the true number.  :-)
