Assumptions - this schedule shows the cash opportunity lost by waiting to sell an existing
home until the value of the home equals the existing debt and the costs to sell:

1) Personal residence was purchased in 2000 for $150,000 with no down payment. In 2005, the market value
    increased to $350,000. At that time the home was refinanced for $280,000. In 2010, the value of the home
    declined to $175,000.
2) A personal residence "B" comparable to residence "A" was purchased in 2010 at approximate market value.
