Amy Hu id be happy to meet with you when you arrive.

@Johnathan Norman

I haven't read every response in this thread, but seems like this issue may have been resolved. 

I had a similar issue last year in Parma OH with the city fining $150 for a garbage can out one day later than it supposed to be. The property is in my name, not an LLC. I was livid about such pettiness from the city. In any case, I called the local council woman and she actually got it handled for me! I didn't have to go to court or pay the fine. She was awesome! But I just wanted to share this as another option if anyone finds themselves in a similar situation.

We call it CLE here. ;)

What dates will you be in town? I’ll be recovering from tax season and happy to grab a beer.

@Federico Gutierrez is correct. However, Great Lakes REIA is worthwhile because you will meet some good people, especially if you are looking for a windows guy (Chris W), or an insurance agent for investment property (Randy R), a local evictions attorney (Gary F), etc. The meeting itself is usually interesting, often with useful topics, but the first 45 minutes to an hour is usually a sales pitch for why you must join REIA, and how great the benefits are and how foolish you would be if you did not join. There may be more than 100 people at the meeting, but they have trouble with retention, so about 25% to 35% in attendance is usually 1st time visitors or investor wannabees, another 25% to 35% are vendors wanting to sell something to the investors, and the rest are practiced investors that come to learn and share.

Meanwhile, lets get together when you are in town... thanks for the referral last week.

It's usually as sales pitch. You need to actively reach out to members on here who are making things happen and meet them

Mechanical systems can only be accurately tested if all utilities are on. Without that assurance you are rolling the dice. I buy properties as is frequently, but I also have crews that can fix any issues. Not sure what building/property you are heating but $8250 seems high for anything 4 units or under.
