My initial conversation with the owner of the property revealed that there are utilities at the street bordering two sides.

If you are going to have any problem with lining it up or color differences definitely go with a border before you go the rest of the way up. get the exact tile name too because not all white is the same color..

I've spent a fair amount of time in SoCal, from LA County down to the border and I really LOVE that whole area!

Hi @Jason Farr , a good cross border legal/tax specialist is Altro Levy.  

Hi Joe,What are the fields diplayed when you scroll to the History section,I see a list with SOLDs in the area, displays fields like date sold, sqft, beds, bath(If available), distance from the subject property etc...Thanks,Bimal

Then, I look to my left and notice an alarm system panel flashing with the display reading "Enter Pin" and I think to myself there's no way this place has an active alarm system.

GC / Westland on the border to Inkster are not good areas.

PS - I don't use an Illinois CPA because I use specialized cross-border accountants, but I've definitely seen some Chicago area CPAs recommended on BP.

Joshua Daniels picture is displaying upside down for me and all other pics are fine.

Very affordable, super nice people (both locals and expats), close proximity to rivers, rainforests and ruins, as well as the Guatemala border for shopping and medical runs.
