Withdrawal of some 85% Loan To Value BTL Mortgages
The withdrawal of these mortgages is a worry for the recent investor like me. Our investment model is generally based on getting 85% mortgage products! I could not have got into Buy to Let in the first place without it. Basically because I started with such little amount of money. For those with a large bank account this is not such an issue!
I do not want to see this product dissappear altogether. Even if it does not dissappear I can see that it could suddenly get more expensive.
Yet more fall-out from the so-called ‘credit crunch’!

over again to see if you can outsmart your right foot, but
you can’t. It’s preprogrammed in your brain!! 1. While sitting where you are , at your desk, in front of your
computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles. 2. Now, while doing this, draw the number ‘6′ in the air with
your right hand. Your foot will automatically change direction!
Craigslist seller cannot get a call back from realtor
After the fun filled post the other day on Craigslist, I came across this frustration today.
Here is the link:
Sorry in advance, but it was typed in all caps:
THAT I HIRE TO SELL MY HOUSE TO ANSWER MY CALL? OR, AT THE VERY LEAST CALL ME BACK AFTER I LEAVE THEM A MESSAGE!!!!!!! I AM SO SICK OF THESE REALTOR’S TALKING SHIT, THEN YOU SIGN A CONTRACT WITH THEM, AND GUESS WHAT? THEY BECOME A GHOST!!!!!! YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, AND I AM ABOUT TO FIRE YOUR ASS. YOU ARE, OR WILL BE THE THIRD REALTOR I HAVE FIRED, AND UNTIL YOU GUY’S LEARN HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CLIENTS, YOU WONT BE THE LAST. YOU TALKED SUCH A BIG GAME, SO BIG THAT I ACTUALLY WENT WITH YOU, RATHER THEN A CLOSE FAMILY FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A MISTAKE THAT WAS. IF THERE IS ANY DECENT REALTOR’S OUT THERE, SEND ME SOME INFO. MY HOUSE IS IN BALTIMORE COUNTY. I AM SELLING. BUT KEEP IN MIND, IF YOU DONT ANSWER MY CALLS, AND DONT RETURN THEM, YOU WILL BE FIRED TO!!! ESPECIALLY IF I CALL FROM ANOTHER NUMBER YOU DO NOT KNOW, AND YOU ANSWER, LIKE MY REALTOR DID. SO, IF YOU CAN MEET THE CHALLENGE AND THINK YOU GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO SELL MY HOUSE, YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In this market I am not surprised by this. I am sure a lot of sellers are really nervous as we are getting into panic mode. Some of the reasons they might not be calling back is that the seller is not realistic on price. With so much inventory that they may not need anymore listings to suck up advertising dollars. In any case, any Realtors lurking in the background want to comment? It is understood anonymous not to upset your current listings.
