They have 2cm thick granite for ridiculously cheap.

They said Canadian accountants charge ridiculous rates to do US accounting.

Credit card.Even if you found a lender to do it, flat closing costs would be a ridiculous % of loan amount.A flat $1500 origination fee is mathematically identical to 30 points upfront on a $5k loan.

I was shopping 4-plexes I found on the MLS and I came across a ridiculous place in my area (in West Valley, Utah) I need to do some research, but this area had 7 or 8 brick 4 plexes (I didn't stick around too long as I left my 9mm at home).I was thinking about contacting the local mayor to see if there is a way to "force" a sale or "force" changes in property management in areas that are simply unacceptable and in violation of city codes.
