It’s a mid-size vehicle, and although not a luxury car, it does have everything most people need and want, like power everything, alloy wheels, 8 airbags, 30+ mpg, room for 5, a bumper-to-bumper warranty, and that wonderful (to my nose!)

I feel like Julia has hit it right on the nose, and from here you're only going up - either you eliminate the demands (and potentially the demanding tenant), or you get the improvements on her dime and a happy tenant.

We "cant afford it"  ;)   *sniffle*  The grocery store bill has gone up to $720 a month.  

Long time no see, hope all is well.

Nail holes in the trim were filled with caulking, maybe, the drywall texture was as consistent as the weather, apparently there was no more paint on earth, a nice sharp cut tile nosing at a bath tub.

I'm hungry to get nose deep into flipping and buy and hold but I want to be efficient about it.

I would bet within 3 or 4 years after the sale when the balance is still close to $90,000…if you were to dangle $60,000 cash in front of the sellers nose, he would take this discounted amount in a New York minute.

Sometimes keeping the nose out of water is interfering with any of the larger projects I probably bought too many projects without seeing the future projects.

Compare that with the years it takes to become a lawyer or doctor, or even an accountant, and you'll begin to see why people tend to look down their noses on real estate agents.Either you'll be among those who will work to change the image of the industry or you'll shrug it off with a simple, "Why bother".

We do get caught up with our nose to the ground, eyes focused straight ahead, that we forget to look up and look around.
