I'm smack in the middle of the Chicago north/northwest suburbs and as far as I'm concerned this geographical region consists of many suburban utopias!

Any way, if any one in the Nashville, TN or regional area has any insight (good, experiences, bad experiences), I'd love to hear! 

I'm a real estate investor working in Stafford/Fredericksburg/Spotsylvania region.

If you are in the mid Atlantic region and read this, any level of experience, I would love to hear from you.

Lastly, setup keyword alerts for your area so anytime someone posts something related to your region you will be notified.

I'm interested in connecting with people in the Sacramento region whether you're another realtor, investor/buy and hold or flipper, title officers, loan officers, ect...

(as long as that dollar is used wisely haha)In regards to appreciation, many regions did get hit hard with local economies still recovering.  

From what I heard it will be specifically beneficial to smaller/regional institutions with small impact on the larger players.Frankly I would like more clarification in total but I feel the "changes" that are coming seem very vague and even the banks don't seem to know what will really be different.Ironic timing with Lending Club's IPO yesterday as they are often tossed into the shadow banking commentary.

I always provide fridge as part of my rentals, I understand it is regional. 

Many loans in those regions are still grossly underwater, having negative equity.
