Did you try asking google? All the information is out there.
http://www.mortgage101.com/article/how-do-mortage-points-work It sounds like you know very little about mortgages and finance (no offense). You really should ask an accountant or a real estate attorney for advice before making the biggest purchase of your life. I have Citi Mortgage for my two properties. They are fine and I've had no issues with them. In fact they have been very helpful and actually seem to want my business.

JC landlord registration?

I own a 1 bedroom condo in a downtown hi-rise (Portofino). Last June I rented my unit out and a few days ago I got a letter from JC saying I have to register as a landlord of a multi-unit dwelling.
It's not like I own the building and have 250 units on my rent roll. It's only my unit which is not rent controlled. Anyone know if I still have to return the form? I'm going to call the JC office, but I would appreciate your opinions on this as well. thanks!!

Have you tired sealing up all air entry points on walls shared with the neighbor? Outlets, phone jacks, and cable outlet. Seal the edges of the outlet cover with masking tape or thin layer of caulk. If you are not using the outlet, cover it with masking tape or the child proof covers.
Sniff around the door jambs: seal up the hole in the striker pate with masking tape -- sometimes air comes through there, especially if you have metal door frames. Seal the perimeter of your entry door. All four sides. Use window weather strips on the inside far corner of the door frame on the top, bottom and opening side. On the fourth side, use 1/8" double sided tape (only expose one side of the tape -- stick it to the door frame, not the door). You may have to push the door closed for some time, but you'll find it'll block smells and noise. These steps worked for me.

I witnessed this explosion in Edison from miles away.. scared the heck out of me and rattled my father's home until it was put out. I thought we were nuked.
This pipeline was owned by Texas Eastern and was a 36" pipe -- the same thing could happen in JC. Texas Eastern Pipeline Explosion Witness Description "...causing an explosion ripping apart nearly 80 ft. of pipe, and sending debris flying over 3/4 mi. in all directions...The rupture was felt as far away as Reading Pa. and Long Island, NY." "...a spark from flying debris, static electricity, or whatever, ignites the escaping gas. A blow torch of extremely hot flames (1500-2000 *F) some 600 ft. high and 200 yards across now exists."

An underground transformer exploded at Portofino -- a small yet bright fireball came up the grating in the driveway. Power flickered for a second or two.
A low deep sounding explosion followed by everything being lit bright orange. It was quite scary considering I was in my bedroom with the blinds drawn yet the room light up like it was noon!

Crystal Pointe only destroys views if you have an east facing condo at Mandalay and from the pool area, which sucks.
I lived there for a couple years when it was rental and I'll say honestly that it was a good experience. My condo was quiet and I never had any problems. It's situated between 2 path stations so you have a choice when coming home from Manhattan. The walk is about 8 minutes to both. Also, a parking spot can be purchased at the Mandalay; I believe you can only rent spaces at Shore Club (not sure). They renovated the gym and common room when going condo - a marina is slated to be built in the little water inlet to the North as part of the Crystal Pointe construction (again, this was rumored and slated to be done, not sure what the current state of the deal is). I don't know what more to say. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Imagine 2nd St, East of Washington. The garbage trucks come by exactly at midnight and take about 25 minutes to dump 7-8 containers of garbage. Each container has 2 metal lids which they lift and drop down making a LOUD noise each time. 16 times.
Llater that same morning, the recycling truck comes by and then the cardbox box truck. In that location you have Portofino, Avalon low rise, Athena - all of them can hear this truck do it's work. Imagine how many hundreds of apartment/condo units are affected by this! This happens on Tue and Thur at midnight. The double whammy is that on Mon and Fri early morning (6am) - Avalon low rise gets its garbage picked up which also makes noise. So I get woken up 4 days a week. This never should have been planned this way. Ideally it should be after the morning rush like Vigilante suggests.

Helicopters can't be used because they can't keep up with a 747. A typical, non-military, helicopter tops out around 140-150 knots. For AF1 to go that slow it would have to have flaps out almost fully to avoid a stall.. Air-to-Air photography is usually done using another plane. Although in this case that would mean having the camera in the fighter jet which doesn't make sense. Or Obama could have been taking pictures of the fighter jet over NYC for his scrap book.

I sadly agree that may happen. But don't fool yourself if you think McCain won't. It's just not possible not to raise taxes after 8 years of neo-conservatives in power. With Obama we at least get better foreign policy and a competent and respected bipartisan administration. What happened to the true republicans? The repubs of today have lost all dignity and honor. They go to the lowest of lows. They lie and disrespect themselves to get the loony far right vote. Until they return to true conservatism, they won't be in the President's seat again.

That's funny, the world became more unstable after Bush was elected and gave the finger to most of our allies. A coincidence? From Obama's website regarding his view on the military: ------------- To build "the first truly 21st century military?we must maintain the strongest, best-equipped military in the world." This includes the "ability to put boots on the ground" and "I strongly support the expansion of our ground forces by adding 65,000 soldiers to the Army and 27,000 Marines ------------- So yeah, that represents a reduction of 25%. On taxes: His plan is to reduce taxes on 95% of the tax payers. So yeah, I can see how that means he will "raise taxes". Tax rates on those making 250K+ will be how they were under Bill Clinton (highest bracket will be 3% more). So it's not like someone making 300K will all the sudden be paying $50,000 more in taxes. The new tax rate is applied to income above $250K - not all of it. You should educate yourself on the policies some more, then come back and talk.

You really should get new talking points from the GOP. Everyone knows the reason the current congress hasn't gotten anything done is because the repubs block every bill they try to pass. Once more Democrats get elected this cycle to both the house and senate, the chances for bills to pass is much higher. The Republicans had their opportunity when they controlled both houses and the Presidency, but in typical fashion, they got greedy and f'd everything up -- including their political futures.
