He said his son in law is looking , so I gave him my number .

I am not sure if that relates to generational preferences or if it is related to housing costs then versus now. the issue is with the million dollar home buyer they are not as interest rate driven.. normally have a few hundred grand down.. etc.I was thinking the new tax law would hurt the high end more than rates not allow interest write offs for a mortgage over I think its 750k when it used to be a million.. but my son in law just dropped a 1.5 million dollar loan on their person resi in Vegas and he did not even know about the write off or care.. and  they got a stunning rate for a jumbo.. .... on my 420 to 460k Portland community I am now building we did have 2 that backed out as their payment was a little higher than they wanted given todays rate and their lack of down stroke.. but someone replaced them.. as Russ said they were still buyers just bought from someone else or bought a used home with a little lower Price point.Although I am not building more than one 2 million spec at a time LOL.. and that in the historic district in Charleston and I suspect that will sell for cash..

One of the 1st rooms was my son's that he moved into at 3.

I try to deal with probates in this manner.........I will conduct myself just like I would want someone to conduct themselves in dealing with my family that I care about....IE...Mother, Father, Son, Daughter, etc.  

My son is the only one who followed up.

They recently refinanced the home the brother lives in, taking out $100K in cash for the parents, leaving a $350K mortgage on the property for the son and his wife to pay (the son essentially wanted to buy the house, but could not qualify for mortgage without the parents). 

We break up, she moves out with my son, and I am left by myself in this big 3 bedroom house.

That's a lesson that Randy Weaver, a US veteran who put his life on the line for this country, learned at the cost of his wife and son whom Federal Agents murdered and the Federal Government paid him off to settle a wrongful death suit.

My son bought a house where the seller's tenants had done $15,000 in damage.
