We've been exploring fringe neighborhoods and other neighboring cities and towns that I think will continue to grow as the city expands (Matthews, Indian Trail, Belmont, East Charlotte, Gastonia).

Others have touched on the fringes of this but its worth calling out explicitly - one major difference between a sale and a HELOC of Cash-Out-Refinance is that a sale is a taxable event, and a refinance or Heloc is not.

A couple whose combined income is what % of or over DTI that put them on the fringes of failing.  

The majority of Dems are centrist and just as interested in low taxes as the Republicans, and this is the type of fringe tax issue that could easily get shot down in committee while 99.99% of voters never had a clue that it was even discussed.

Some tenants don't want any paper trail because of where their income comes from or some are "on the fringe" and are skeptical of government/banks in general.  

And yes, that hour could well have been spent "Fringe" or "Swamp Loggers (I really want one of those feller-bunchers)", but fixing some minor repair isn't the end of the world.

I was looking for some fringe area that could see better deals and appreciation ( like everyone else lol)Thanks for your insight.

I only know these things because I have RedFin search agents set up for Oakland to give me a feel of what the market is doing (and I was quite sad to see a move-in ready property on the fringe of East Oakland that I *loved* go for $200k+ over asking).Kudos to you, though, for even jumping in!

@Prachi Metha I really like the fringe areas to the southeast valley.

Many are close to wind farm and fringe oil areas so I do have the boom potential.
