Anyway I wouln't mind getting this one, nice spread from loan balance to current market, and cooler weather starting in September if I have to do a roof, and I'm planning on it.Absolutely right Jason.I'll keep the board updated.Frank

Tile seems to work better in Phoenix because the floors feel cooler during the summer.I use two colors of carpet.

Should I just go after foreclosures, expired listings and other motivated situations in my hot market or should I look into cooler markets elsewhere (within 90 miles of my home, where rehabs are still Listed on the MLS close to 70% LTV, or better)Now, another issue in hot markets is that the rents don’t match the mortgage payments, unless you go with the 1-5 year balloon, interest only mortgage, and even then, your cashflow is minimal (100-200/mo), so if a tenant trashes your home, you’ll be hurting pretty bad.On the other hand, the cooler markets have rents that exceed the mortgage payment (which baffles me, as I think why would anyone rent if they can own for less?).

please don't blame me when there are drips... or the floors are ruined...or the room where you kept the cooler gets 15 layers and the other rooms don't get touched....or when you run out of paint before your finished because of all the spills...come to think of it these parties are alot more fun as a guest than as a host!

Cooler and wet now, but none of that instant frostbite they have out east.

I think many guys like it cooler than women do.

Typically a range hood for a gas range will need to draw more CFM than that for an electric range, so get a good range hood.

Here in Arizona they're everywhere, in Phoenix we have people we know as "snow birds" they come down here to escape the winter weather from Canada and all over the country, they usually ether own a home here or are looking to rent.In northern Arizona we have cooler weather, sceanic mountain views, and quite simply it's just beautiful.

For latecomers, it is very quick, fun, and cost effective to go door to door with a small cooler handing out ice cream or fruit bars.

I am looking at upgrading my triplex from Evap Coolers.
