What is considered an old property in Bay Area? Is anything from 1970 and before worth a buy?

One of lenders I am working with is asking for 750 pre payment to finish he application, which has lie, 30 pages of signatures.

The other lender gave me a preapproval letter. Is the 750@ normal thing? First time home buyer here, feel like I’m about to screw myself over.

Instead of targeting a high downpayment for a house, my wife and I are planning to look for a house once we hit HHI >= $250K. We think this will be mid next year. Reason being is want to target a house in the $700K range. Thoughts on the approach?

New Jersey partnership question.

Partnerships need to use market sourcing for purposes of calculating NR withholding tax (though NJ doesn't even call this withholding anymore).

However, for purposes of calculating the NJ distributive share of income, you apply Gross Income Tax (personal income tax) rules, which is 3 factor and includes COP.

If I end up with 0% apportionment under GIT and 10% apportionment under CBT (withholding tax), the partnership pays tax upfront but NRs get 100% refund?

Why does fractional real estate have such a bad reputation? For context, have about 2 million saved plus house worth another million. Early 40’s. Generally follow FIRE, but being cooped up for covid has been tough, and wanna buy a fractional out west at Jackson Hole, where I’d love to go skiing every year....so I have something to look forward to. Would cost about 50k for access to 1 week in winter and 1 week in summer. Plus HOA fees of 5k/year. Thoughts? Watchouts?

I have the Chase Freedom, Freedom Unlimited, and Sapphire Preferred. Now that Freedom Unlimited offers 5% on travel, 3% on dining, and 3% on drugstores with no annual fee, not sure why I should bother keeping the Sapphire Preferred with a $95 annual fee. Would I miss out on anything if I cancel the CSP? Also, I find the Chase travel portal, which I get a 25% value advantage through CSP, to be overinflated and not a good value — have never used it.
