Lots in common there.

Having a common geographic interest, please reach out if I can ever be of help.

Did I put information in wrong or is this common?

So go to sites the common folk are using and make sure they see your property.Yes Price is huge, and if overpriced initially it can kill it, but 5% is a huge drop depending on the price point of the property.Regular open houses tend to be for realtors to get new clients as buyers.

It seems the best/most common method is to sign a Promissory note, they will wire the money to the title company prior to closing and receive a Deed of Trust at closing placing a lien on the property.

But no, its not as common as the low stuff and the high stuff.

I don't know if this is a common thing, or may be it's just a pure coincidence that I came across a few times just in the last two months.When I schedule with a listing agent to see a home, and most times it's either a short sale or REO, especially a REO, the home is vacant and you have a lock box with a four digit combination code.Now once in a while I will be at the property on time and the agent's running late, and I would get a call from them saying "go on ahead, the code is xxxx and I'll be there in 10 minutes".

It's like undressing a fat chick.

So I spent money and it was barely worth itThe appraisals here seem to come at fair market value when you want to buy/sell, but if you want to refinance at the same bank, they come low because its common knowledge to appraisal companies that Banks do not like to refinance in order to keep their risk low.Bought another property at 80% LTV, same thing.

In this particular neighborhood, it is common for spanish to be the only language.
