But at some point you kind of have to commit to one prom date. 

Encinitas is for wealthy that does not want to flaunt it and like a small town feel. 

I just noticed it on in the back ground while Lilly and robin are checking out a band at a high school prom.

quite common in the mid west and in low value assets.. in Texas there is the 100.oo  two week option money that is standardyou put up 100.00 for a two week due diligence period.. you dont close you lose it.. when I first came to Oregon from Northern CA  I was also shocked at the very LOW EM deposits and the use of promissory notes as EM deposits.. so folks were not putting up anything but a prom note as EM.. as things got more competitive up here you never see the EM note any more and deposits that were generally 500.oo to maybe 1000.00 have gone up to 3,000 to 10k.. on my new construction I require 10k .. these are 500k to 700k new builds.. 

@Ray B. we have a meetup this Wednesday afternoon at the Prom, you should come by!

The worst thing we have is policing for parents renting outs vacation homes for their children during prom season.The other great thing about Galveston is our convention center.

Now, it's time to come clean and admit, that's your daughter or your high school prom picture or you're not near 60.....now which is it?

First, there is no reason to flaunt your wealth- i think its tacky, and your tenants may resent you, especially if you are a lot younger than them.

It took me 18 months to refi our first 12 unit property (that was also 2009) and so many no's it was like asking a super model to your prom dance.

I flaunt it.
