This is one of the reasons a lot of investors favor shorter holds. 

Do I think prices will dip in many markets, sure...because interest rates are increasing and demand is coming on...this is nothing new, this is just the market cycle.We are aggressively buying and here is why demographics for our market (greater Portland OR) are very favorable, it is the most affordable major city on the west coast...even still with massive amounts of people moving in vs. moving out.The second reason is those interest rates...we are long-term buy and hold owners, so I WANT those lower rates, if I wait I might bet a lower price (or I might not) but I WILL pay higher rates or possibly not be able to finance at all.

Generally, the coverage of the policy will state; “The coverage of this policy shall continue in force as of Date of Policy in favor of an Insured after acquisition of the Title by an Insured or after conveyance by an Insured, but only so long as the Insured retains an estate or interest in the Land, or holds an obligation secured by a purchase money Mortgage given by a purchaser from the Insured, or only so long as the Insured shall have liability by reason of warranties in any transfer or conveyance of the Title.” 

My business partner or I can help give you information to vote in favor or against it.

Obviously as it  grows the economy of scale will be in my favor.  

Not as charity or a favor but as a win - win proposition. 

Unorthodox request I know, butdoes anyone local to Orem, Utah have the time, or know of a service that will pickup and ship an item to me from Orem, Utah?  I need it to finish a renovation and the vendor does not ship.
