No property tax issues with common elements, no complex hazard insurance policy to deal with, no common area maintenance issues to deal with.  

I actually joined BP a little less than a year ago so I am not new to this site, but, this is the very first post I am posting, so, I am very glad to introduce myself here.I've recently quitted (finished my last day two days ago) my full time job in the heavy construction industry, which I had worked in for the past 10 years as a construction safety manager.
