I work as a business demand analyst by day so I have extensive experience in quantitative analytics.

I done extensive research prior to selecting mine, it is a big decision since you will basically be marrying your firm..lol!

I have a home that requires extensive remodeling.

Just finished the initial beginners guide book and now its time to put in the action to my ideas and dreams and get started!

I have an extensive list of trusted trades (HVAC to plumbers to roofers) to share. 

I have extensive experience in residential construction in 22 municipalities in north Texas and have been a landlord for years.

The net of this was I ended up offering another $5k to bring me up to $150 "take it or leave it" under the threat of the seller walking, which I highly doubted as they needed all proceeds to close on another property they were under agreement on.Bottom line is $150 was accepted in the 11th hour (pretty close to what time I got a signed extension on the appraisal addendum back as it was expiring the day I made the $150k offer), the downstairs unit is listed and being shown, upstairs is being served notice next week and the property  will be "officially" mine Monday!

I have/do rent to two tenants who have had criminal backgrounds.First tenant was in a transition program for an extensive period of time (years); had a job working in maintenance at a local hotel which he faithfully rode his bike to (a distance of a good number of miles) because, of course, he was not allowed a car.  

So my main question is how extensive of improvements, changes, etc can I make to this 20' access easement that goes thru his front yard and right next to the corner of his house?

But I've talked extensively with the municipal zoning department, read the code, and I am preparing my case.
