ncounty4 – that’s just the Piggs making sure we only help people with tough skin.
But I do notice that you have replied to the nasty comments and not to those which are analytical in nature. (That is a pet peeve of mine with forums in general – people ignore the good and strike back at the bad, making the forum less useful and valuable.)
XBoxBoy and I show that this isn’t a wise decision, yet no comment from you on it.
Also, your question has been answered (You’re welcome, by the way)
– Because the banks expect the house price to drop.
– Because it is more house than you can afford.
– Two mortgages may raise a red flag.
– Because if it turns into a rental, you will not make enough rent to cover the mortgage.
– Because you aren’t putting enough down.
– Because the world is a different place than it was two years ago.
Scardy cat said it best. If the banks are scared of it, you should be, too.
