Hi fishes,

Yidden, I've been slowly drifting away from religion. It's odd because I used to be so connected, and I still retain the same values!

I become so sad when I see my friends becoming more connected, while I find myself gradually falling away 😞... HELP!

How do real estate lenders take cash flow into consideration? For example, typically I would probably only be approved for a $500k loan ($125k comp and $100k for down payment), but if I’m buying a multi-family home and planning to live in a unit and rent the others, will lenders approve a bigger loan?

Uh this could get bad fast if this holds through open. Protect your downside if not already.

Was able to do so in London, Hong Kong, and India. However, Robinhood here doesn’t seem to allow it.
