Should You Use Doctor Loans to Finance Investment Properties?

What Are Doctor Loans?

Should You Use Doctor Loans to Finance Investment Properties?

First, it’s important to understand what a doctor or physician mortgage loan is. This is a mortgage loan you can get that allows you to buy a house with less than 20% down and NOT PAY Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI). Remember, PMI is that insurance that you pay to protect your lender from you defaulting on your mortgage. It’s a nice benefit to not have to pay it.

Real estate agent Shay Stein remembers not too long ago when buyers pledged to name their firstborn after homeowners to get to the closing table.

Now, buyers are asking for closing costs, repairs, or in some cases, insist on the availability of street parking or they’ll walk, Stein and other agents say.

“Last year, they were making offers within two hours of the house being listed and now they’re visiting the home multiple times and asking for all kinds of things,” says Stein, a Las Vegas real estate agent. “It’s like whiplash.”

It’s a change for buyers — and a

Noem taps impeachment prosecutor to replace attorney general

PIERRE, SD (AP) — South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem has been appointed the lead prosecutor in the Senate impeachment trial of former Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg to fill the remainder of Ravnsborg’s term.

Noem’s interim appointment of Pennington County State’s Attorney Mark Vargo was effective Tuesday.

She pushed for Ravnsborg, a first-term fellow Republican, to step down days after he struck and killed a pedestrian with his car in 2020, and later pushed for his impeachment. Ravnsborg was ultimately convicted last week of two impeachment counts and was removed from office.

“Mark Vargo returns integrity, experience and stability to the

Ace Attorney fans are very upset over an animation that shows Geiru snapping her suspenders into her bust.

Geiru Toneido is a villain from the 2016 3DS title Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice. To simplifly: She’s the daughter of a famous performer but an instructor tells her she’s not cut out to follow in her father’s footsteps. So she becomes a balloon artist instead, obviously.
