Border security is a NATIONAL DEFENSE ISSUE.

While they are not BP members, I will pass on your appreciation to my uncle and cousin who protect one of the toughest cities in the nation (Baltimore).I'm quite certain they will appreciate your sentiments...Thank you for that.

So, you're saying that someone who is not a licensed real estate agent can join the National Association of Realtors?

Although I don't know about lasting the whole month, in New York I believe we drink 3-4 x the national average of coffee, and large goes for 4 bucks.

I'm in that boat as well, my vote in the presidential election won't be swaying Missouri, not the point at all, there are local/state issues that will make a big difference on the national stage.

I will be happy to share with you what the National Fire Protection Agency which is the Federal Governing body when it comes to fire standards says about the number of smoke detectors that are "ideal".

I'm aware that from the time the National Association of Realtors first started tracking sales price increases/losses on a national basis, there had never been a loss until the housing bubble burst around 2007-2008.

However, the rates also seem high.As a comparison, I pulled investment property rates on amerisave.com, a low-cost national web-based lender, and the rate that has zero points (and $450 of total *lender* fees) is 4.00%.

Welcome to BP Nation.
