With that in mind we are navigating the waters between two very murky districts that both want the same things, but don’t communicate between one another.

If there's a repair or capital expense like new water heater, might take a little more time with getting estimates. 

Overall, still a win.Even the property I was once under water on has now appreciated well above the purchase price and is now bringing in a good cash flow.

We are under contract to sell it and supposed to close last week but the city will only issue a 2 DU cert because they "have no record of permits to convert the storefront into a residential coach house"We did a FOIA on the water records which came back with nothing, we are still waiting for the FOIA on the permit records but don't think it will give us anything because we talked to the seller from 1986 and he said the coach house was a storefront when they sold it. 

When purchasing, things that will amplify rates are roofs that have less than 10 years life, old water heaters, flood zones etc.

When the current shifts against the swimmers, some people decide to get out of the water and sit on the shore until the water shifts in their favor.

Water lines, yes.

I'm currently a senior in college and am on track to graduate with a bachelors in facility management this upcoming spring.

If the water or the drain pipe burst, are you going to tell the tenant "not my washer - not my problem"?

I am trying to soak up as much information as I can so I can put it to action this spring lol!
