When I was stationed in Northern VA, high costs had me stuck until I sold my Corvette to meet my DTI ratio and get a condo using my VA Jumbo LOan—one of my best investments.

Cover the boat and/or put a "NOT FOR SALE" sign on it and go about your day. 

You can start small in some instances especially in a market like Detroit.

Hi BP, i’m curious if anyone has moved an electrical meter without upgrading service. i recently upgraded a meter and was forced to move it to a new location however now i can’t pass inspection because the service enters the building before the meter (only good route to get to new meter was indoors) i really want to avoid a new electrical drophas anyone found a way to enter the building before metering?
