Barely noticeable unless you were standing in the neighbors yard and looking for it.LandscapingStorySo this one worked out better than the last.

We were talking about renovating our basement ourselves (it is bare concrete currently) and so I thought I'd do some research.

My ex settled down with a different guy nearly 20 years older and they barely make ends meet even with my $600/mo in child support.

The numbers barely made sense at asking price. 

The point is, both of those numbers are respectable (18k or 19k) and that 20k in extra purchase price barely affected my return.So yes, you can pay retail and still make money.

I listed it last week (late Friday night) on one site, but just barely listed this morning on Craigslist and a couple other sites yesterday.

It’s only a 6 by 5 bathroom with barely and space to move but I think it work.

If they lose $50,000 on an investment, that's at most 5% of their total net worth, assuming they just barely qualify.Most sponsors I've dealt with qualify their investors on their Accreditation status AND temperament, risk tolerance, alignment of interests, etc.

I have ignored them for some time, but any deal is a good deal at a certain price - it just means staying conservative on underwriting.What do people in barely stable/declining markets use as underwriting rules of thumb?
