During the mortgage crisis i worked as a loan officer for a very short period , in that time frame i saw how shady that part of the business was, customers where signing documents blind and for that very reason most lost their homes, everyone was taking full advantage of the situation and trying to get a wealthy as fast as possible before the party was over.What i dont like working with loan brokers/officers is that there is a lot of jargon in their paper work that they only understand , i wouldnt want to get stuck in bad mortgage deal .

Of course, tough to build 50,000 units in one person's back yard, but there will be some people build granny flats, or garage apartments and you may see some office converted to residential. 

They all came in to the office screaming.

As you can tell, it’s a very competitive industry and many loan officers will do whatever it takes to get your credit pulled and pay for an appraisal. 

Almost every office has agents that aren't making any money today.

I'm looking for real estate developers to partner up with.I'm with Mini·O (mini-o.com), we sell backyard studios: from mini offices (96 sq ft) to tiny homes (300 sq ft).

Slowly, over the years, Abu bought small multi-story retail and office properties, called shoplots.

That may include all costs such as overhead, personnel time, office, taxes and so on.

I believe the bonus deprecation will jump back up to 100% no matter who is elected, but when the election is over whoever is in office will more than likely pass the bill and take credit for it. 

The loan officer came back and said that the sq ft was approximation and the appraiser doesn't want to change the sq ft or redo the appraisal.
