I don't think you can make the market bend to your will, which is what this big press for affordable housing is pressing for.Recently I heard about an anti poverty group that was actually making some progress with a small group.

@Ashley Wolfe Hotel Collection sheets on amazon are very nice.  1800 thread count and anti wrinkle. 

I'm rooting for you and keen on everything anti-fraud, hence, why I'm following your discussion. 

Why are you buying a new car and eating all that depreciation (anti-investment), why are you renting your TV, in fact why do you even own a TV period! 

I really don't want to be on the board but this HOA has several rules/resolutions that are very anti landlord. 

Now days, most bay area cities are anti expansion, some cities even require vote by neighbors to allow split of lots. 

Keep in mind, when HUD or anyone winterizes, they only winterize the drain lines and not the water lines as no one wants anti freeze in their water supply

So now that their anti-development rules have restricted development to the point of causing skyrocketing rents while more people continue to move to CA, the government wants to force private individuals to partially subsidize for the public so they (the govt officials) can continue to get voted into their positions.  

Used appliances vs. new stainless steel or whatever is "hot" today.I'm not anti-Class A or B, but I simply find that Class C offers the advantages of good/great cash flow and the negatives (i.e. more tenant-intensive) can be handled with a combination of careful screening and staying on top of issues. 

I’ve not used these myself for metal roof projects yet, but can report good things from this brand.https://www.lowes.com/pd/Teks-9-x-1-1-2-in-Zinc-Pl...The ones with small washers tend to be used for metal applications and the ones with large washers for spreading the load across surface area (probably ideal for translucent material of a greenhouse).As others have mentioned, the key is to have a decent coating that resists oxidation and a good seal.If these are used for penetrating metal, It’s sometimes helpful to give the screw a light tap with a hammer to keep the screw from wandering, potentially scratching or denting the roof when the driver gets wobbly.
