I lost my plug nickel, but here are my 2 cents on what factors will affect the housing market and rates in the coming years.1.  

To conclude, I think it is ok to share your story in an organic way if warranted, as human beings are naturally wired to listen, remember and are attracted to storytelling but to plug shamelessly and on a consistent basis just makes it all too cringey and blatantly sleazy! 

If you own your own business and are working your butt off there everyday......whats the point?

Yes, there are some examples of people who immediately plugged in to private money and bought one house after the other without coming out of pocket.

People are people and there are great Section 8 tenants and there some pain in the butt...

I have seen the most bazaar, pathetic and down right sad, I mean VERY sad behavior. 50 year old men displaying there butt cracks while sporting tattoos of spread eagle women, ridding BMX bycycles up and down the street.

I also learned that plumbing is a pain in the butt. 2) Buy at a price with room to add value and refinance to pull out most of the down payment / rehab costs.

Just like the other lending companies they just plug in your information and cast out the line to see if anyone bites with no consideration for the deal or project or exit strategy your working.

I want BUTTS in the seats and get park rent. 

THEN take THAT number, divide by 12 to get a monthly payment (P&I).THEN just plug into an online mortgage payment calculator, set the interest rate and manipulate the purchase price to match the P&I that you solved for.Voila!
