People figure it out.I can't predict the future, but I can think through my game theory alternatives.The home equity I harvested by selling my San Jose home in 2015 is $X.

That makes sense Jake, about every product out there including cheerios does this type of review harvesting.  ;(  I can only say I'm a long time reireply user, in its simplest mode. 

. - If you planted trees each year for 10 years before you started harvesting, you could eventually use the money that you sold the trees for to buy more saplings and keep planting.

As long as you get a great deal and can force appreciation, you can harvest the equity and use it as a downpayment  for the next deal... so you don't have to keep socking away money from your paycheck for real estate. 

But personally I like the area around Harvest. 

I get e-receipts and e-statements whenever possible to cut down on tree harvesting.

I think harvesting the equity and having it ready for the next deal is what seems right for me today.  

Seattle is now #2 in the nation next to SF.I'd start thinking about harvesting. 

Harvesting emails from BP is against the rules
