We only lightly sanded/roughed surface of cabinets after a thorough cleaning and time to dry, then we primed with a water base heavy duty primer (we used 1-2-3) and got Enamel Sherwin Williams paint (like $100+ gal). 

Most of us are not deserving but still not all of us are lazy, and we really want to step up in the warm light of direction to support our families in this cold land...it starts with a roof.

I'm not saying the next light bulb won't be invented (it took 10,000 tries) but plan on a long slog to make it happen in real estate.We and our Joint Venture partners use a fairly sophisticated spreadsheet with a lot of automatically input variables and at the end of the day, it is still experience and second guessing the market that works best.

None of this was caught on the home inspection.One example: we discovered a garage light not working.

Got spooked and just didn't see the light at the end of the tunnel.While I don't meet your criteria for owning anything today, I'm actively looking for opportunities again in Scottsdale, AZ and I'm interested in joining the Zoom mastermind sessions.

.$2M in, at this future time, lightly levered RE.Supposing this is close to what you’d love, one could spit out a financial plan that looked something like the following:- Max HSA- Max 401(k)Use leftovers to go on a shopping spree buying RE at relatively low leverage, potentially on 15 year mortgages, in local LCOL area (which probably also means a relatively reasonable cash flow market)Obviously I’m making a ton of assumptions here and will be wrong in ten places.

Solar led motion activated lights are cheap & effective, get the really big/bright ones (based on max lumens) around $60-100 ballpark.

Check out this BP article that sheds further light on this topic.

- rock, concrete, asphalt, Security $10,000, Electric/lighting $8,000; Other $10,000;  This is in the countryside so no engineering cost.Below is a layout.

How about how to write a light switch?
