Not long ago, I remember the pundits talking about the impact of Blackstone's private REIT, known as "BREIT," on the commercial real estate market.

A borrower will be more likely to go with a lender that gave them the time of day when their loan amount was a bit on the smaller side, or remembered their name after not hearing from them for a few months, or sounded excited on a call when having a potential project explained to them.

I read a book (I don't remember the title) discussing the $2,000 large-screen TV of that era.

@Dave Foster Yeah, I remember that happening here, back in the crazy days.

I can't remember the last time a kid caused more damage than the deposit would cover.

Remember find the motivation then you can offer a solution.

Remember, buyers will assess the design and quality of the home before making an offer.

Remember, cash for keys doesn’t necessarily mean you GIVE them cash, it means you give them incentive!

One of my favorite things about BP is at the end of every podcast they used to (maybe still do I can't remember) "What separates those that make it from those that come and go?"

Also remember you will have to replace all the electrical because of the heat.
