Now, almost everyone has stainless steel.

@Michael Herr   I personally would use a steel door, for security purposes.  

It happens from SF north for sure.Its a niche but there is a reason you had Barrons in the old days,, they were steel , railroad and Timber

@Arthur Zaragoza   I am not sure about others but I would have your take out figured out before I paid cash and counted on a refi.I would think your American relatives are best bet to get this done for you. they will be limited to loan slots ... then you can go portfolio and then lastly semi hard money if it makes sense.true non recourse with secondary lenders is in the 8 to 9% apr rates with 50% down..

@John Steele totally value your opinion man but it's quite a bit off from what we've experienced.

Use longer screws when affixing the plates here too.In High Crime AreasGet a brass (or stainless steel) wrap around plate too.

@Ryan Steele: Thanks for the encouragement!

I said I sure was so he we walked over to one of the big steel roll up doors and pounded on it a couple of times and told someone inside to open the door.

But we make sure they understand that if they pick the time and are not there, they get billed for a service call.Also, like the cable company analogy, arrange big windows on your time slots in case your people run late.Wm

I'm a machinist at a steel mill working midnights.
