 So then, is it typical for neighbor B to always be obligated to pay for a portion of a shared fence whenever neighbor A decides he wants to replace all the fencing around his property for any reason? Even if the shared fence still has life in it, and no prior conversation was had before the decision was made by Neighbor A? 

The fact he is replacing all his fences seems to me that he isn't just replacing our shared fence because it needs to be right now. This seems more like a cosmetic decision. 

I am seriously thinking about declining. As with any other capital expense, it doesn't seem good business practice to replace it before it's closer to the end of its usable life. 

The down payment after paying off your mortgage ($0) is too low

I would wonder what the terms of the trust are, although I'm not sure if you'd actually be entitled to that information. Some trusts have a set number that gets distribution -- x dollars annually or in more frequently installments. There are some trusts that distribute a percentage of the balance of the trust assets. But most commonly, trusts tend to distribute all income to the beneficiaries. If that's the case, then depending on what kinds of assets are in the trust, the income could fluctuate from year to year. (This may not matter, but I'm mentioning it just as a factor to consider to make sure the trust distributions are as set-in-stone as they believe.)

This spring/summer I would like to paint all the aluminum siding and trim work. I don't know what color to go with as I'm not the greatest designer. I was thinking white or a light grey. Everything but the brick and window frames would be painted.

pretty much thrown in the towel on local CT agents. contacted several of them and have experienced various levels of frustration trying to  line one up to help me find properties. Im probably going to start with a so called "TurnKey" to get things going

Hey guys! I know this is just my silly excuse but this has become my biggest obstacle! 

I'm 20 years old and a women. It seems like women aren't taken as serious in business as men ON TOP OF that im only 20! -_- I've made wholesale deals, and have made 1 owner finance deal. but my fear is still speaking with the homeowners because I think they will just laugh. When really i know i can do this business because I have already 

Any advice to getting more confident? 
I attend a couple REI meetings as well I'm going to start forcing myself to talk with people and get there business cards etc etc

But how can i get over the fact of being scared/ timid to talk with homeowners?

Probably a very silly post but i just can't seem to shake it! I have a website that is getting a couple leads here and am going to force myself to hand out bird dog flyers to mailmen/ trashmen but even with that I'm scared they willa think "yeah right YOU can buy houses?"
