You can discriminate against jerks or slobs, but if that jerk/slob thinks it was because they were a disabled, gay, POC you could be in trouble.

It almost always costs more (and takes longer) than you think. 

I think we can brainstorm ideas on investing, whether you choose this market or not.

Mine charges a flat fee for both placements and renewal which I think is better than charging 1 month's rent.  

(I'm thinking for general banking, checking, savings, etc.)I've been banking with Chase, and am having a nightmare of a time closing CDs upon maturity.

For VA loans, I think I can speak for almost all of us in stating no veteran is likely going to let you assume the loan unless you also are a veteran and can use your VA loan entitlement.

At the end of the day, if a lender thinks a wave of foreclosures is on the horizon that will decimate real estate values for a period of time, they will not lend.  

All you have to do is make a compelling point for them, and having a broken property that they don't want to fix can be a reasonable one.Anyway, allow me to give you a couple of points to think about.Downtown LA has been suffering because of the working-from-home shift and the effects of the homeless.

They may/will not even look at the refi of a cash property unless you supply the HUD from the purchase which you do not have cause you haven't closed the loan.I think if you pursue this you are heading toward headache land and you may possibly screw yourself. 

What would the boss think about the idea of taking that $200k and investing it into a cash flowing property or properties, and using that cash flow to pay for your Crest vacation a couple times a year?
