But, better to miss the boat, than taking a boat that might be leaking, and we have no way or money of fixing it and crash.

But you are keeping your place in town and really only plan on "crashing" at your multi on the weekend.

Just two quality self-closing gates, with crash bars, and a Schlage key locks.

If he bought in 2008, there's a good chance that he bought before the market crashed and was basing his purchase on much higher ARV.

There may be some deals left in Orlando but I think the real money got made there during the crash back in 2008-2011.Thx Mike!

However, If I remodeled the kitchen it could be closer to $125-$130k)I will try to update this post with some before and after photos but my hard drive recently crashed so I need to find these!

So your choice is to pay a slightly higher (investment property) rate and make sure you have enough LTV (usually 25%), or plan to live in the condo for another year after refi closes.Before the last crash, people played fast and loose with occpancy requirements.

This fact allows for greater success for both parties and at the end of the day, that's the goal...at least for us.The other reality that exists today that did not exist prior to the most recent crash is the new environment relative to the rules, laws and regulations we all operate under in the post Dodd-Frank lending world.  

., Portland rebounded quickly after the crash.

Another thing to consider is the even during a recession/crash, no matter how bad the economy is nationally, the 30,000 active duty soldiers here and their 50,000 dependents will still get paid.
