Thank You, I bet I could actually do this for relatively inexpensive.

Is there some kinda inside bet between you and @Joshua Dorkin ...be honest.Guys, I sent Brian the link and asked him to put some color to this conversation.  

I bet it takes longer in NY.

Your best bet with homepath properties is to talk directly with the listing agent and make your offer through them.

You bet I did.19.You will find two kinds of applicants: Individuals, and Teams.

If retention is what you want then a loan mod is your best bet (best chance at a decent new payment and least expensive) and your wife's income is the only one that is "required" to obtain it (assuming she can support one based on the DTI ratios they use).  

Although tourism comes and goes with economic cycles, it is likely that the rental demand will continue to keep the college town a solid bet.

In my opinion, (only formed from what I've read, not based on experience) your best bet is to identify emerging markets and invest there.

But, it's not more than they are capable of paying.Here are some example of the suffering costs of success:If you suffer the cost of disciplined spending and investing habits, you will have peace of mind and an early retirement.If you suffer the cost of daily exercise and nutrition, you enjoy a great physique and an exception quality of life.By suffering the cost and inconvenience of going the extra mile for your clients, you will enjoy bigger commissions and increased opportunities in life.By suffering the cost of preparation and doing more than what's expected, you will enhance your reputation, expand your opportunities and increase your social capital.The price of success is temporary discomfort.

Also- every time I've gotten a raise, I haven't adjusted my spending habits, rather just increased my savings amount.
