Conor McGregor issues statement following bus attack plea deal #conormcgregor #ufc #mma #ufc223

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight titleholder, Conor McGregor, was able to avoid jail time after reaching a plea deal with Brooklyn prosecutors on Thursday (July 26, 2018), and will instead pay restitution and attend anger management classes, along with community service.
Our full report on those proceedings right here.
“I just want to say I’m thankful to the DA and the judge for allowing me to move forward,” a relived McGregor told the media. “I want to say to my friends, my family, my fans, thank you for the support. Thank you.”
This clears the way for McGregor to make his Octagon return later this year, presumably against current 155-pound champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, though a bout of that magnitude is unlikely to take place until the end of the year.
“Now that this has passed us, we can focus on things that have been on hold for some time,” manager Audie Attar said (via MMA Fighting). “Conor’s been training, he’s in shape, he’s ready to go. So now it’s just about getting back to business, and we hope to have some news to announce very soon.”
McGregor has been sidelined ever since last April’s arrest, which came in the wake of his UFC 223 pre-fight meltdown that left a bus damaged and a couple of fighters injured. What punishment he faces from UFC, if any, remains to be seen.

Team Thayer Real Estate House Flipping Traps! #flippinghouses #eugeneoregon #oregon #housing #market #realestate

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...

HELOCs Are A Viable Funding For Investors! Team Thayer #realestate #realtor #housing #market #investor #news #oregom

The evolution of real estate investing has made financing easier to find than ever before. However, that doesn’t mean investors should rush into anything without minding their own due diligence. Simply finding a loan and receiving approval is by no means the only barrier separating an investor from acquiring an additional subject property; there are terms, rates, and a litany of other things to consider. What’s more, there are several types of loans made available to investors, each of which has their own unique distinctions. For the sake of today’s article, I wanted to discus whether or not  home equity lines of credit  (HELOCs) are a viable source of funding for investment properties. That said, it’s worth noting exactly what a  HELOC  is: For what it’s worth, HELOCs are not all that different from your standard credit card. However, whereas the most common credit cards have no collateral, HELOCs use your home as collateral. Accordingly, HELOCs coincide wi...
