But she had to drop the price $30k of the $35k shortage. 

Zillow rings, you need to drop everything, oh sure sure I can show you the house tonight at 5pm.

As time passes I may have to drop it but there are similar (less cute) homes for less.  

Once the shortage is repaid, the monthly payment will drop by a corresponding amount.

.: Quote from @Susan Real: Really hate to speak negatively, as I don’t ever like to drop to that energy, but I must use my voice to steer women away from this.

Ormond Beach for instance - properties that would have been snatched up by STR investors are sitting on the market with price drop after price drop due to zoning crack downs..

I know that everyone's time is valuable so I would love to take you out for a cup of coffee if you are local to Boston or maybe help you with something else like technology, RE and etc.Thank you in advance  I would pay the $250-$500 to spend an hour on the phone with an attorney - as their advice (Especially if its a $25k or $50k investment) is a drop in the bucket.

If their performance drops, it requires much documentation, performance reviews, fix it plans, etc. etc. because if we fire them without heavy documentation, now we pay unemployment. 

Regarding risk my perspective is that it is much lower than typical common equity deals in that there is a 25% cushion re valuation drop before the pref equity holders would be impacted.

It's been a very challenging time this past year, and surprisingly we haven't seen any of the market drop.
