As long as the bills are still getting paid, you stay the course.A great example are people who bought literally the day before the meltdown in 2008. 

I know the 15yr rates are better, but the interest difference seems a small price to pay to gain a few hundred dollars or so per month of spending power.I too like the approach of using a HELOC on my primary, rather than a cashout, as the bill is separated off, as I don’t pay for money I’m not using, and as the LTV can be above 80%.

And plumbing subs are commonly billed separately.

As the landlord things will break and you will be stuck with the bill.

Also, the weather is getting cold, and she'll soon be paying heating bills.

For example:The Seattle City Council passed the bills last month.

Even then, having a copy of the promissory note instead of a wet-ink won't kill enforceability like it used to do, but certainly will make your legal bill a smidge smaller if you had to go to court on it.In fact, for anything that was recorded, the recorded copy is much more important than an original (unrecorded) document.Buyer is entitled to the original recorded deed, not the lender. 

@Bill Ward of course not ☹️.

When you're ready to sell, you should reach out to your accountant to have them run some numbers for you so you know what type of potential tax bill you'll be looking at.

It has helped me be able to see my cash position and be able to see that I am positioned to not only pay the bills but able to pay myself!
