It's such a relief to have a reliable property manager since I live so far away, and to know if anything happens to that property manager that I will have someone find another good one.  

Thanks for sharing, big relief for me since I'm in the middle of a flip in San Juan Capistrano right now, although personally, I think the prices in the coastal towns are going to stay flat. 

Then about a week later I set aside an hour for bank reconciliation.

Is there any relief programs for this?

It’ll give you some relief from wholesalers and junk mail lol.

Sometimes the pressure relief valve is on the top or the side.

I chose option 3………..however.After making my 2nd monthly payment the NY state homeowners relief fund (which I applied for in February) agreed to pay up to 50k towards my back mortgage payments which would bring me current. 

it takes all my income now to meet monthly demands. my idea is this second, after some improvements which my wife and i have experience and enjoy doing, will be  considerably more valuable, and will, importantly, allow our kids to attend a much better school.as far as paying off student loans, my plan has to be longer range. if teaching in a title one school for 10 years i receive i think 70% relief of these loans -- so that is part of my loan repayment idea. appreciating any input.

Cork underlayment provides some relief, but a set of heals upstairs still stands out.There are likely some flooring professionals here who can make a case for the thicker, more expensive foam underlayment, but our experience tends towards a conclusion that the biggest difference may just be the price.

Snow plowing is disaster relief and liability mitigation .
