So aim lower than it could ever possibly be or walk away.

Hi Teri, I have direct relationship with them so the quote is always lower.

So maybe you could find something a little lower, but not much.He was open to whatever I wanted.

In certain markets, renting may be more cost-effective than buying which means your monthly payment will be lower than if you owned a home.

Get lower paying job when fInally let go. 2-leave area foR saMe salary range and sell current rentals since I am not comfortable being long distance landlord. 3-cash out and pay taxes and penalties on ~$200k 401k and really jump start my rental portfolio to replace lost income. 4- some combination of these.

Should we wait till we get back state side around this time frame to get started?

Other managers I have interviewed were at 50% first months with a lower % of gross rents.

I don't think you will find permanent financing at a lower rate than a Fannie-subsidized 30YF mortgage.

and on some of my new builds in ORegon I was 10k high and had to lower .. but still making  our margins.. but just pushed the envelope a little.when I think of drastic price reductions it was like what I experienced in say Atlanta.. were I made HML in 07  at 90k for a great house that appraised for 140k at the time.. and by the time I took it back in 09 the best offer I could get was 39k cash there was no financing.. now that is a melt down !!! 

Vacancy runs like a mini office but with lower quality tenants and shorter leases.
