The investment you select needs to be one where you are going to be able bring the elements at hand both positive and negative in line to realize a return that justifies your efforts!

Landlord/Seller shall have the right to select the materials to be used.

It ALL comes down to tenant selection.

There have probably been many posts similar to mine, so I will try to make it unique to my situation and goals.

There is the consideration of wanting to become landlord again, and then there is the estimated profit to see if it would be worth your time and effort: this is unique to every property.

One other thing in an older BP version, is that once a post reached a certain number of votes, the border around that post changed a bit to highlight that post and draw the reader's attention, and it changed again at another vote threshshold (something I admit I liked, to make sure I didn't miss something outstanding in some thread).Keep in mind that the BP site limits your number of vote bullets in a given time interval, so you may want to be selective in voting lest you run out of votes just before I post something great :)

You know, in your profile you say something to the effect that "every intown property has had its unique challenge."

:)Then live in it, initially select a decent area, you know where you would live (LOL) then later on, look at it to rent, if not, sell and move on.

Not having that issue in my Chrome (on Mac).Did you try selecting "Actual Size" under the View menu (Command-0 on a Mac) just incase you inadvertently resized the view (my son does it every time he plays with my laptop).
