Jason Schmidt paying off completely, then buying another
18 July 2008 | 15 replies
I would plan on doing this using this combination:- any extra income from my business- using the money i would have used for my existing house payment (would be free now because I would have already paid it off)- using the income from the tenantwe are cheapskates here :)It would take basically $5100 a month in extra payments to do it, but the $1000 a month saved from no house payment, and say $100 from our tenant in the property would mean we would need to come up with 4k a month extra for a year.

No buyer will buy a house for $250,000 if he can get the same thing for $230,000...regardless of what has happened in the past...unless they are ill-informed.In addition, be careful about "sold" data that a realtor gives you from MLS.

Thanks for all of your advises, it turns out this agent is in the middle of quitting (or being fired) from the current broker and getting in to another; he has been sitting on doc for over 3 weeks (mostly basic REO disclosures that needed to be signed and return to selling agent) that he didn’t know how to pull them out of Windforms (Realtor Online Contract data base); asked seller’s agent questions about them over and over; lack of REO knowledge (REO Specialist printed on his card) and couldn’t care less for his last few clients…Relayed the facts above (with a little help from the selling agent) in addition to the tangible misled evident to my agent’s boss and got only 18 moths worth HOA fee ($810) credited.Yes, another rookie’s lesson learn; just didn’t think he would be that much out of line for a major issue like such; considering he’s a 72 year old guy with shallow ethic.

I give more weight to solds than listings, but if there are multiple listings of comparable properties in the same area, then they define an upper bound on the value.Based on that data, I'd say $70K for the first deal is not a good deal at all

I think it's an interesting extra feature, and it may make a company using it look a little more professional, but I'm not sure if it's 'industry changing' either.I'm playing with some things like Instant Messaging bots, and Twitter, as extra ways for people to be able to access information - so far I think it's still in the early adopter range.
