I've not seen huge price drops in my market at this point, but I have seen fear work in the buyer's favor.

In other words, you could risk being able to favorably refinance or sell the  next property at the end of the loan term because of the large outstanding balance.

Can someone please do me a favor and provide an estimate for the monthly sewer, water and trash fees on an unmetered duplex? 

Major chains are moving out in favor of the South and East side.

Noorda, his wife, as jointtenants with full rights of survivorship as TRUSTOR and Zions First National Bank asTRUSTEE, in the stated amount of $70,831.75, in favor of The Lockhart Co., a UtahCorporation as BENEFICIARY, dated January 6, 1986 and recorded January 8, 1986as Entry No. 4186110, in Book 5725, Page 1718, of Official Records.Deed of Trust (MERS) executed by Lee Noorda and Irene E.

While my bank has favorable interest rates, they will not do anything other than 5-yr balloon. 

I've heard of people buying large number of bedroom homes here and in seller favored markets like Denver, taking over group homes or other houses that are 3-6 bedroom, or large properties in square footage that might not all be permitted and make them conforming, etc.

Thanks for the help - I know it's a pretty big favor to ask.
