He said that the water "Can melt ice!!" 

We had a microwave/oven combo that was totally destroyed and had to be replaced (never cleaned, internal coating melted off and rusted).

Basement will get water through sewer when lots of rain mixed with snow melt.

Account Closed  I was late to Chicago I did about 7 HML there in 07 prior to the melt down. however I have jumped back into the market.. and from my limited time there and vision ..

However, none of us have ever seen an economic melt down like this.

Also, this house sat for 17 months so once the snow melted I realized how bad of condition the yard was in.

Lots of engineers, and i'll add to John's nicknames, "melting pot of the south".  

Different cultures have different ways of living their lives.. you dont see a lot of other cultures ( at least here on the West coast were we are a melting pot) that have children before they are married..

Our plan is to request the 3rd draw next week once the 2nd floor front unit has been completed.The last draw includes the fire alarm system (which is already done), the staircase coming off of the 2nd floor rear unit (which will be done next week) and exterior painting which we can start once some of this snow melts and the temperatures rise a little bit.

It's a desert and cars/bicycles literally melt on the streets lol)I think you are thinking about it well, especially looking at a long term approach, in a city like Denver that has good population growth, rent growth, average income, and vacancy rate like you mentioned is a still a great play if you are satisfied with just breaking even for a while, and seeing future profits/appreciation.
