When I go to finance, if I cash flow recycle the money I'll have approx $3660 in reserves if nothing breaks in that year, which I expect. 

I would actively look at the broker/local investor route as it is easier and helps you be more efficient esp. at this stage of the RE cycle where everyone is demanding more than what their property is worth.

I'd be curious if all the other bills were also paid late or with bad checks or was it just the rent.I read this as both sides trying to manipulate the system and a judge who rules by his emotions rather than strict interpretation of the law.Kevin it does seem like both sides are milking the system.

I hate seeing that box full of good 9 volt batteries that goes to recycle when it fills up.In what states are you required to replace the batteries in a smoke detector more often than yearly?

I just needed a starting point.I thought about not putting a return address on the envelope but know what I do with most mail that comes to me without a return address... recycle without opening.

Assuming the new fits the old frames, you can just recycle the new frames, or replace them as needed.We do the same with windows when both panes have been broken.It is not always the most economical when looking just at materials costs, but when factoring in time and difficulty - it is the easiest and fastest.

They left the money, because it was worthless.People could drink a bottle of wine with dinner, then the next day, recycle the bottle for more than they had paid for the wine.

Keep the 4plex (don't slaughter your cow, milk it), and pull equity out via a traditional refinance, or (preferably) a HELOC.

If he wanted to milk owners for extra money, there are more lucrative ways.

If you're already in the barn, you might as well milk the cow.
