But it is time to become a better educated voter, a letter writer to your representative (ha), and a more informed citizen.But at the end of the day, you have to look in the mirror and be able to say "I did my best today to work hard, be fair, honest and honorable."

Get a copy of the state contract, get a PDF writer that you can use to edit and sign PDF docs, pre-fill all the information that will stay the same from offer-to-offer (earnest money, special stips, buyer info, etc), and then save the template.When you want to put in an offer, bring up the template, add the offer-specific information (date, address, purchase price, etc), sign and send.We can put together an offer this way in about 3 minutes.

I found the blog of this person who advocates a 3 tier system, where individuals would own a property holding company, which would own an operating company that carries out the property management, as well as separate companies that own each individual property.http://www.businessgrowthstrategies.ca/448/kelowna...Now I think this is overkill for just one property, and the writer does acknowledge it's best for people who plan to own multiple rental properties.

As long as these businesses remain under the radar, most people will ignore them.In my case, I worked out of my home for years as a technical writer (standard desktop computer and laser printer, along with a telephone and high-speed home Internet connection).

You should be able to get some very competitive pricing from both the direct writers like State Farm and the independent agents, so check with both.Regarding the ACV coverage, you will only be paid the depreciated value of the part of the building that was lost.
