You would be surprised at the amount of people that pay a higher rate on their auto financing because they use the dealership. When I was a finance manager, I used to hate it when people used to bring in outside financing because we made a lot less profit on the vehicle by marking up the rate from the bank.

We now have credit union auto financing available with excellent terms that are normally better than what you’ll find at a dealer.

Has anyone went to aviation school and learned to fly a helicopter? What was the hardest part? Is there any safety concern or safety measures that are taken since it only has one engine?

People,

Just to clarify. It is illegal to do HARD MONEY LOANS for owner-occupant properties in every state in the nation. If someone is trying to sell you hard money loans on an owner occupant home, it is 100% a crime and violation of mortgage guidelines and could be classified mortgage fraud. HARD MONEY LOANS is a great loan program for investment real estate properties and commercial properties ONLY. Owner-occupant primary homes are regulated and the DODD FRANK rules and regulations apply.

Missed by one question the Utah PLM exam. Going to set up a appointment for next available time at Pearson Vue.

Here is another question I do not understand

Edna is purchasing a four-unit investment property and is getting an ARM; the terms of the loan will be 3/6mo ARM with 1/1/5 CAP with a start interest rate of 4.25% and a margin of 2.25%. At the first adjustment, the index is 2.50%, at the second adjustment the index is 3.25%, and at the third, the index is 4.125%. What will the interest rate be at 18 months after the initial interest rate adjustment?

Builder and Developers can get hard money loans. Land acquisition and construction loan. 25% down payment and up to 100% construction. No credit scores, no debt to income ratio, no income. No DSCR, NO RED TAPE. FAST CLOSINGS. For one to four units residential non-occupant projects.

Bruno, MissyMu, and Gunner going to feed fish in pond. Feeding fish time. The pond did not have any fish after the big freeze in 2019 after the pond did not thaw until late May. All the fish we had died. I bought about 500 feeder Gold fish and the blue Gills reproduced from the birds dropping Blue Gill eggs. The blue Gills multipled thousands of them. Look at when we feed fish flakes. The pond looks like its hot water boiling. You can not see too many feeder goldfish but the ones you do have tripled in size. The little baby blue Gills know when it’s feeding time. Fish are smart creatures. When the pond was stocked we had a a large big mouth bass named Gilligan. Gilligan let us pet him and hand feed him. The coolest fish 🐟 who knew feeding time. Was like a dog. Liked to be hand fed. Ate hot dogs, bread, by hand. Food Gilligan didn’t like, he spit out. Gilligan died during the artic freeze when the pond did not melt until May that one year. We have lots of wildlife in this half acre pond. Bull frogs, ducks, cranes, and snapper turtles. Those snappers can be dangerous. I used to go swimming 🏊‍♀️ in the pond until I stepped on a snapper turtles 🐢. Then I stopped. Always careful dogs don’t get too close to pond due to snapper turtles. Sometimes I invite hillbillies down the street to catch snapper turtles for Thanksgiving and the love it. The hillbillies love snappers. Its a delicacy for them. I watched Bizzare Foods with that bald heavy set guy that eats everything from cockaroches to squirrels and saw him skin a snapper turtles 🐢 and eat it like a steak. Some people eat racoons, skunks, deers,wild turkeys, goats, cranes, parrots, and pigeons too. Not for me. No zoo animals. Cannot eat live animals I see. Only packaged frozen foods from the grocery stores only.

Commercial lending is such a broad field. Most commercial lenders are specialists on certain types of commercial loans. For example, some loan officers only specialize in SBA loans. Other commercial loan officers only do hard money loans. Yet, other commercial loan officers only limit to factoring or accounts receivables. One of the main benefit http://www.lendingnetwork.org differs from the competition is that lending network is a one-stop-commercial lending shop.

How do 401k Loans Effect a Mortgage Application? Can someone get a mortgage if they have a 401k loan and does it count against them?

Is Kamala Harris the best candidate The Democrats have to face former President Donald Trump for 2024 Presidential Election? Are the Democrats that desperate of having a semi-descent candidate for President? Do Democrats think the American people are that stupid? Do Democrats need to name Kamala Harris, the person who slept her way up the political latter? Kamala Harris slept with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown to kick off her political career. Kamala Harris is not too smart. Many people cannot believe how she even became a lawyer let alone District Attorney of San Francisco, Attorney General of California, United States Senator, and Vice President of the United States. Now she is running for President? OMG. What has Kamala Harris ever achieved in her political career. Watch this video clip about Kamala Harris.

How is the National Realtor Association ruling affect real estate agents making money especially buying agents. Thank you in advance.

I want to close business for 4-6 months due to covid. Would i get a mortgage loan. I’m self-employed wanting to qualify for a mortgage loan using 1 year of tax returns

I live in Texas and would like to know how much of a loan you can get approved for with a 590 score?

I’m currently in chapter 13 bankruptcy but made 1 yr and 4 mos of on time payment. Could I qualify for an FHA loan

What are the eligibility requirements for unsecured credit cards?

How do I apply for a VA Streamline Refinance?

Most Americans are aware that many people from different walks of life hate former President Donald Trump. I have never witnessed the hatred people can have against one person. I will try to keep the tone of this post as objective and neutral as possible and base the content on FACTS. I want to compare which candidate is the best leader as President to be the Commander in Chief of the United States. Suppose you can focus on facts and comment on which candidate will be the best President in the best interest of America and the people of the United States so we remain the leader of the free world 🌎. In that case, we can Unite our country and get back to being Americans with one goal in mind: What’s best for our livelihood, the livelihood of our children, the livelihood of our grandchildren, and the livelihood of our future generations? The way our country is divided and the hatred that exists is not healthy. It’s more of a crisis and equivalent of stage 4 cancer. More and more Americans are beginning to speak out and not remain silent. Nobody is above the law. Not Trump, Not Biden, Not Kamala Harris. We don’t have to like or love Trump. However, take a step back and compare Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Donald Trump. Who is the best man for the job? Who’s the man who can get us out of the rathole we are in? Who is the man who can get rid of the lying, corrupt, and politically infested system that is destroying America 🇺🇸? Let’s get a thread on your thoughts and opinions on making America a country that the entire World would envy. Let’s brainstorm and become a country of the people. A country of honesty, integrity, pride, honor, and the country helping and caring for people. Let’s decimate corruption, fraud, Treason, and criminals who commit crimes against humanity.

Here’s a few pics and videos of Chase.

The Tale of Chase and His Half-a-Ball: A Long-Haired German Shepherd Love Story

There are dog lovers, and then there are staunch “my-dogs-are-my-co-pilots, my-shadow, my-ride-or-dies” type of dog lovers. My wife and I? Definitely the latter. And it all began with Chase, our Long-Haired German Shepherd born on 25th January 2023; a majestic and fluffy, fiercely loyal, and ridiculously stubborn dog with one very peculiar obsession: his prized possession, half-a-ball.

The Ball that Never Dies

Chase adored a particular toy above all others: a red ball. But let’s make no mistake—this is not a ball, and once it even ceased to exist. A long time ago, it did, and in fact Chase loved to fetch it—round, smooth and completely undamaged. However, now? Well, now it resembles an object of interest that has been subjected to a brutal archaeological dig. It overflows with bite marks, is disfigured beyond recognition, is in need of surgery, and quite frankly, had physics not intervened, would have ceased to exist by now.

As dutiful dog guardians, we engaged in speculative thinking. Why do we not attempt to acquire a new ball for him? Or, alternatively, how about two dozen brand new red balls that are identical to the first one? Since it was clear to us that the only issue was his lack of options. Makes sense, right?

No, not at all.

When Chase came out to play, he was greeted by several pristine new balls. Instead of running towards them like a sane dog, he sniffed them thoroughly and walked away as if he had just seen the antichrist. He didn’t even bother touching the fresh balls because at the end of the day, all he wanted was his half-ball. His one true love, the ball most people would disassociate with, is a half-chewed, nearly unrecognizable, blended piece of rubber that is coated with slobber. No other ball comes close to it.

Meet Skylar and Floppy: The Sister Duo

At this point, I am sure you have also deduced that Chase is our favorite dog in the family. For reasons that I am sure will be explained later, we can’t be normal people and leave him all by himself, hence, we got him two sisters. Now Chase was born on January 25, 2023, and so were his new sisters, making him a year older than the two. We surely love a good symmetric story.

Floppy most accurately describes the look of confusion, her ears thrown in different directions, give her a quirky, cartonish look style that can be also described as outright unique. Together with Skyler, who serves as the more excitement-driven dog, they have singlehandedly changed Chase’s life for the better, but the worst for Chase’s owners. The sweetest part? The lovely, heart-melting chaos they create while together.

The Three Musketeers (And Their Chauffeur—Me)

These three are a tight-knit group, and it is amusing to note that they would take my job if given the chance. They sit in the front row of the car when we go for rides together, which is a must. It gets pretty crowded because Chase assumes the shotgun role, while Skylar and Floppy scrunch up at the back like two misbehaved toddlers on a family trip.

As I am idling at stoplights, Chase scans the pedestrians and judges every single person’s life decisions while Sklyar and Floppy use the chance to bark at random objects. It is hard to get any gas without an event happening either. Whenever I leave the car unattended, all three dogs treat me like I am abandoning them and press their noses on the window as I step away until I come back.

The Ball Conspiracy Continues

With the arrival of two new sisters, one would assume that Chase would loosen up over the ball. Chase doesn’t share, nor does he seem inclined to. Everyone is baffled along with Skylar and Floppy because they are unaware of his bizarre dedication to the mangled ball. Those two other dogs would much rather chase the new red balls, which frustrates Chase to no end as he sits and perpetually observes the younger dogs, shaking his head in disbelief.

Now and then, Floppy makes an attempt to capture Chase’s half-ball to try understanding the excitement surrounding it, which is always an awful decision. Chase always gets it back with all the fervor of a person who is safeguarding the final piece of pizza at a party.

Life with The Trio

Our lives now center around three enormous, cute, spoiled, and incredibly funny dogs. Some bone of contention includes but is not limited to:

✅ Chase still not accepting the fact that his ball is not a ball anymore.

✅ Skylar being the main culprit of mischief.

✅ Floppy attempting to act like a baffled potato.

✅ All of them fighting for a ride in the car as if the car belongs to them.

We would not want it any other way.

So, if you ever spot a car zooming past with three extravagant Long Haired German Shepherds- one inconspicuously gripping a half-ball in his mouth while the other two stare in perplexment- you now have an idea as to who we are.

And if by chance you have a chewed up, barely recognizable red ball that is too damaged for any normal person to use, then to you Chase may just consider you his best pal.

P.S. Your guess is as good as mine on how we can convince Chase to replace the beloved trinket he keeps with a brand new, whole red ball. It’s safe to assume that whatever he has will remain. 🐾
