    “She made it sound like the paperwork, bank’s possible refusal, timeframe, etc. are a nightmare for most buyers and that she wants her buyers to be happy by choosing a home that they can get into and not risked being bitterly disappointed by the bank’s non-response or refusal to play ball.”

    That sounds very reasonable actually. Good for you for actually listening to her expalnation. Criticism about unknown agents coming from this blog should be taken with a grain or salt, including when it comes from me as I said in the first post.

    Now if you just want a mercenary she probably won’t be the one for you, other than that she sounds o.k. REO’s and non-distressed listings are a lot easier on average for you and her.

    Apologies to the OP.
    Different points of view PW. I am pretty sure JWM is a good guy otherwise I wouldn’t dare spar with him.I mean to be helpful too.
    My situation involves very little risk and I can do things a lot cheaper than your aquaintance did.There are fair rewards including justifying my life without a real job (we all know real estate isn’t a real job) and getting to be with my kids on site as well as being able to go with them anywhere, anytime, when need be. Pretty good for a hippie IMO.

    “It may or may not affect you now, but it will affect you in the future.”

    Of course it will. The 30k I am spending for my lot split will be chump change in the future and that lot split isn’t going to get any cheaper. Now that is part of my little world as it relates to this blog. Other people are shorting stocks. The prices in CV don’t really matter to me except for a general interest in these things.

    What can we do about the big failures occurring outside our own little worlds that you and others are documenting here? Not a thing. Life goes on. For some it might affect their immediate employment they had better take note. It might effect others down the road. You can only prepare so much.

    You are better on these topics but to make the apparent assumption that other people don’t know how to live their lives is extremely grandiose. If you want to do something besides bitch, criticise and act superior let me know.

    You are right JWM. How is that going to affect me again? I am not afraid of being poor. In fact I think I have what it takes to excel as a refugee. I think the bloodshed in the world would be something to get worked up against but we are pretty complacent there so hell if I am going to lose my mind over the unknown economic future of the U.S.

    Go change your pants now.
