I called a mortgage broker today because I have a potential buyer for the house I'm renting and I can buy it from the owner for considerably less. Yeehaw, I'm a flipper! LOL

Anyway, just for fun I pretended at the beginning of the call to be interested in buyning the house with a 15 year fixed rate note and 50 percent down. You should have heard the shrieks of horror. I'm throwing money away apparently by doing that.

Jim do you listen to the mortgage brokers on the radio in our area? They advocate the complete opposite on just about every point. Low donn payments, always keep little equity, keep monthly payments as low as possible. Invest all the savings into even more property and achieve certain wealth from 20% plus yearly appreciation. I bet know one advocates this in Ohio.
