The simple thing for me is that I need to be able to look myself in the mirror and sleep peacefully at night.

You will sleep better.

the private lender was some tidbit of info on the short sale deal and that more than 1 lender was invvolved. they had to find him/her, etc, etc. but that's all done, so that's in the past.tried the non MLS sites and we struggled every time. the MLS tenants are 15x better, they make much more money. so we sleep at night better. the agent stages the house, shows it, i just pay $1k. i love it.i closed at around 11am, the painter is there right now painting. my hvac guy is coming tonight.put down 25%, like all conventional mortgages, was around 22.5k with all fees and such.

And I can sleep at night.

Would you let your grandma live in the house alone and sleep well at night (that's my litmus test)?

Not only does it let me sleep well at night, but I wake up with enthusiasm, eager to confront the challenges that each day brings.

...get some sleep and then get a new virtual assistant:)

@Brandon Moryl, I'll definitely reach out to you and @Theo Hicks once my head stops spinning and I can get some sleep, ha!  

The old man would already be sleeping in the street if I let him win the auction.

It's so versatile, I throw my motorcycles in the bed, sleep/camp back there, use it as a laptop stand and I have tons of room in the backseat so I can keep things locked back there if needed.
