Lastly, I took back a few properties a few years back in my volatile markets that I was ok selling on the cheap because my health at the time didn't justify the energy to rehab and retail them to non-existent buyers.All lead to reasons why you can only establish a criteria as a buyer and try to stay within it.

Marie Poe you stated that the lender would not receive any points or interest if you paid off prior to 90 days that I have never heard of.The point of that story was that no one had heard of such a thing, including the lender who had it in his promotional materials for 30 years.

Then the dealer has good will of supporting the non-profit, they can put that in an ad (which also promotes the corp.)

See, I had just had my daughter and realized that while life was good now (family in good health, making good money), my family's income was by no means "secure" because I had to wake up and still go to work every day.

Whats the HOA's financial health?

I can bank 50K rather quickly with this job.This is actually a big risk for me as I would lose the disability money (which I want to) and there is still some health uncertainty and the job is across the country.I owe about $40K on the house and could probably sell or remortgage for $80--90.You may be wondering about these numbers.
