When I was writing my book I was able to get feedback and contributions from other BP members, many of whom are featured in the book.

I am seeing a recuring feature out of a lot of these posts, by the way thank you all for your responces they have been extremely helpfull!

We need to have a better edit feature than what we have.

I think the market is still fairly stable up here since we havent been affected as much by the economy and unemployement.

Pretty clear stuff, but the fog will be blown far and wide to see to it the unemployment numbers aren't easily known.

My mother and step father think they can just co-sign but i dont think it matters because the bank doesnt count unemployment as income half the time.They want me on the title ( we paid cash since we used the HELOC so we have the deed, just need to rebuy the house i guess from ourselves.) so i can benifit from the tax stuff which is fine but i think they are going to have to have a loan and just attach me to it right?

It is the only unit in the complex that has this "feature" and has been on the market since the early 2007.

Property location, features, and condition matter only to the extent they affect the numbers.
