An angle grinder with a diamond blade for those odd cuts and for cutting holes around pipes.

So my passion for RE is owning and the thrill of the chase in finding diamonds in the rough. 

Our Worcester (long drive) Black Diamond has no memberships or selling speakers. 

If you want to meet people in Boston and Metro West check out the Black Diamond meetings in both Waltham and Worcester.  

I see this as a possible diamond in the rough with some ways to force appreciation/increase income (create website, add phone number and website to current sign, enforce accurate pay schedules, rent vacant units, increase rents). 

Best one to check out in the Black Diamond event in Waltham (2nd meeting in Worcester).  

You need someone with the proper tools however since not all concrete masons own the diamond grinders and polishers that are used for this type of work.

Also look into attending the free Black Diamond networking events hosted by @Ann Bellamy I recommend that you get to know @Justin Silverio and @Shaun Reilly as they are very active here on BP and in the MA local REIA circuit.

@Ned Carey have you ever heard about attorney Bob Diamond's Tax Overages paid course?
