I have posted in the past on doing granite and would highly recommend using a hard surface (for longevity and beauty) but of course not at retail prices.

Depending on her longevity, you might end up acquiring this property for almost nothing or for a substantial amount of money, but certainly way below its market value.There're no losses in sight for me.

Back in "the day" we would get the same info and a weekend long event for $497 (Wow, now i starting to sound like my grandfather)Today, because of technology being so widely available and inexpensive, you can get the vast majority of the core information that you need to be successful as a real estate investor,  for free!

It seems longer than just a normal visit, sure...but does the longevity really mean anything? 

I realize this business is all about relationships, longevity, grit, ideally fulfillment and am willing to put in the work.

I am not convinced as to the longevity of copper vs. membrane shower pan, that's a tough call.Also, do not skimp on a cheap stamped steel tub.

I like longevity.

The risk will be the tenant longevity, currently 1 year lease, and their care of the home.Additionally the market locally has risen 18% since my purchase, or on paper about a $36000 appreciation.

Hello my name is Allison Hunter, I have posted before; but am looking to take the appropriate steps for longevity in this arena.

If you bought right at the beginning of the school year, I would be concerned about the quality or longevity of the tenants/students.
