So while it feels nice to make some improvements to a block and help to stimulate the economy--it is not exactly a business success.I am in the process of doing a block of 10 houses and this where the real money is because you can control many more of the variables.

that is  good news  regarding the ease  you were able to sell and get full price .....the buyers  seem to be active  in the area in King county ....not much  new inventory so yours  was probably noticed right away...the other element helping stimulate activity is the low interest  rates .......the post above mentioning the lending tightening is definitely  accurate  especially for " jumbo " loans  ( > 741,750  for SFR) ..

I have a tenant (hair stylist) getting close to $3k/month (plus she got the $1200 & $500 for each child) for being one of the 'stimulated' non-essential un-employed.

Unfortunately they wont emerge until stimulated via vibration/movement.

It is nothing like the Bakans, but it has stimulated the economy.

I want to include something like that with the letter I'm about to send to a former tenant in order to stimulate some dialogue about paying.

Knock out a few deals with the investor, stimulate revs and pocket some cash... once you're in a better financial spot ya start doing your own deals.Good Luck,a.

What programs are there to stimulate the population growth? 

What will happen when the Fed stops stimulating and raises interest rates?

I must say, he definitely livened things up around here with some stimulating conversations, so it would be nice to see him back at some point.
