Also, I have two pre approvals today for a cash out refi.

in some areas home prices peaked in the 80s and 90s  think Rochester NY for example or Buffalo.. in some areas real estate seems to make new highs then 10 years later it makes new highs again  think SF bay area , at the end of the day building materials are up land prices even being zero  it cost more to build a home than you can buy an existing one in a huge swath of America so until that changes.. who knows.then in the areas that are slowing but surely turning into rental dominated markets  ( we know which ones those are ) those values will really only move if rents move or investor accept a much smaller return that what they want today which is basically 6 to 10% COC with 20 to 30% down.. 

I know there is a lot of risk there, especially today when banks are getting tighter.

It is probably unwise to assume the value of your property will skyrocket in todays market for a commercial property. 

If my math is correct we had till Aug 26 and or Oct 1 (if we did not count weekends) The owner sold the home for Half of the price and the new Owner showed up today 7/17 telling me i had to move by THIS SUNDAY ...I have invested alot of heart and soul in cleansing the home inside and out and have made this our family home .

Hard to believe that people are still living like this, especially here in my own home state.First Video That Got It All StartedAfter watching that video some friends got to talking and my buddy went down to look at the job site today.

Is there fast and efficient any way for me to educate myself? 

Fast forward two years, got married and moved.

You couldn't anyway since they want their money back fast
