And 36 Other Key Financial Measures by Frank Gallinelli.

I haven't yet tried to get them on my own bc I know TLO and Accurint now have much more stringent requirements for access.

Hi Ryan, The way to tell if it's a buyers' or a sellers' market is by looking at months of inventory, which is a measure of how long it would take to sell everything currently on the market if no new houses where added.

After re-reading your first post, there definitely are drop ceiling tiles in most of the basement which I didn't measure past. 

(L.T.V is slightly lower for foreign nationals) Unless the buyer has some sort of foot print already established in the USA.Being non US citizen doesn't preclude anyone from getting capital, although banks may enforce more stringent eligibility requirements.

Not only does this free up capital for investment, but it keeps me lean and beholden to no part of lifestyle inflation.I have colleagues who are unwilling to quit their jobs or take measured investment risk because of the threat it poses to their lifestyle costs: homes, cars, vacations. 

FHA underwriting is much more stringent, so if the house you want to buy is a fixer upper, it may not qualify.

Add in some bleach for good measure, but it's not really necessary.

I am a big fan of preventive measures, but is this something I should really jump on right away?

I think in the end, as long as I'm measuring where I stand in relation to my overall goals, then I'll be just fine.
