Meaning, I have 25+ years of project management experience coordinating successful international publishing projects--all from my couch in both freelance and staff positions.

- so how do I couch a low-ball offer to him in a non-adversarial way?

I'm at a point where I feel like working with the banks since they possessed most of the properties on the market, but at the same time I don't wanna go above my couch since he had more experience than me.

I'm in a rural area, with private trash service, and they will not pick up mattresses or couches without them being covered in plastic, due to bed bugs.

In my experience when it gets this far usually the tenant is long gone and leaves a dirty mattress and couch behind along with a refrigerator full of old food.

There's also a fire hazard if furniture is placed up against them - they will heat up and catch a Christmas tree, couch, etc. on fire.

Is it patio furniture or the old couch picked out of the neighbors trash?

If you just want audio, I bought a Samson Go mic from Best Buy a couple of years ago that works great with my laptop.

If I treat my wife wrong, stop washing her car every sunday and start laying on the couch she has every right to leave my as*.Frank

The meetings officially start at 6:45pm and in the beginning of each meeting they allow for a sort of "open mic" period where anyone can speak to announce properties they have to sell, what they are looking to buy, or just give an example of a recent deal they have done.
