I am a designer that works in tech.

There has been a relatively recent freon change and the old "R22" freon is extremely expensive (more than 10 times what it used to cost) and most newer units are designed for the new freon and the inside and outside components typically can't be old/new mix.

I would venture a guess that a slight cooling of the market or change in real estate (natural market cycle) would effect the higher priced homes first.  

The way the VA allows us to buy properties is a huge benefit and I'm surprised more vets don't utilize their benefit as effectively as they should.  

It takes effect October 3.

I really don't see how you could effectively claim that you weren't acting as a broker if it came to a full on legal dispute.  

As long as the numbers work, you are confident in your design aesthetic and give the people quality work and what they want, I would say, go for it!!!

My theory is that it may speed up overseas investment as investors there race to get ahead of further devaluations (and before they're swept up in 'anti-corruption' investigations which are mostly designed to weed out anti Xi Jinping factions).There is another hit to demand that also could originate in China; the slowdown in their economy and it's effect on raw materials producers (see http://www.visualcapitalist.com/china-consumes-min... for a good look at that).

As long as you understand the wholesaling process and are able to work effectively with sellers/buyers/title companies there aren't really any "rules or restrictions" specific to the state.
