This may be an old thread but are the lenders requesting to see your expenses on a trailing 6 or 3 month operating statement?

For newbies like us or people who haven't reached their ultimate goal in Real estate, that is great because it means you do not have to follow at the letter specifically what has been done and can trail your own path to success the way you feel it should be; Of course, you can rely and copy on what they have done (Brandon mentioned several times, it is ok to "cheat" and copy others in real estate) but it is more how you wan to use all these tools to build your masterpiece and reach your goals.

As a property manager I don't like cash I try to do everything with a paper trail.

It's logistical advantages coupled with growing number of local amenities (Fermentation District, Encore Casino, Biking Trails) are making it much more attractive for millennials to start owning properties and moving to this community.

I found out the hard way that's 14 that will never come back.Then when we finished a couple weeks later the numbers trailed off. 

I can personally say that I have done quite well in the stock market inside my 401k historically but also saw how badly people at or close to retirement got irreparably dinged when it crashed and, as I become more educated in RE, I am starting to see a real value in having investments that are tied back to hard assets vs just a piece of paper or a line of code in a computer although one might argue that there are hard assets at the end of the paper trail somewhere.

The items he addressed existed during the last balanced budget under Clinton when Biden was in Congress.As far as issuing debt goes, I'd look at the two largest contributors to debt - Medicare and Social Security trailed in the distance by Defense.

Would not a stop loss or trailing stop be some downside protection?
