Why not? The Sheeps own a loverly home in Virgin "Wool" Gorda :floor:but my ram, Ram, gets his horns in a knot when he doesn't get his NFL football fix (St. Louis RAMS, who else!!). We did not wish to invest additional fleece in more US real estate (the young rams have yet to vacate the original Family Sheephouse :pissed:). Ram said, "Let's find an Owner who feels the pangs of today's market and offer our assistance!" Off we headed to the computer and type, type type we typed. We emailed here, called there, put up a blog (ewe, awful), we went to fine homes, on golf courses (Fore!), on the beach ("Surf's Up!), up in high rises ("burp; yellow sicko"), all about SW FL! We offered to pay (all, part, some, most, any, a little, nothing, everything) of the Panged Owner's household expenses. :biggrin: For a share of the equity, of course. :yikes: "No, no, no that won't dew, the Panged Ones said. "Butt, butt (Ram talking, of course), we will stay for X years" "NO NO NO NO!!, a gazillion times NO!" We were ashocked! It appeared to be a square deal, no one gets fleeced, why shouldn't a Panged Owner-Landlord give us some of his goody-goody equity for the Sheeps long term commitment if we offered to pay (all, part, some, most, any, a little, nothing, everything) of the Panged Owner's household expenses ([I][B]wrong term let me reclearification this - all expenses = monthly mortgage payment, taxes, HOA, insurances, etc)[/B][/I]? :angry: Just when all was forsooken, Ram got a call from a (GASP!) a Real Realtor. (They weren't too shiny-penny on the idea; no commissions maybe?) "Mr. Panged Mucho Owner would like to talk to you about your blog and his home!" So we did. And he did. And we did together. And we got some goody-goody equity and he got some Serious Relief and we are all happy as clams, er, sheep in summer hay. The End Questions are now taken, the floor is open. :clap:
