A checkbook IRA is nearly identical as an investment vehicle.  

One of my single family in Euclid had a problem with raw sewage during heavy rains mixing with the rain water and filling the basement with over 12 inches of that disgusting stuff. 

Newbie, so no rental units yet (although i own the house I live in)Myself: tech guy looking to add real estate to a stock heavy portfolio.

We have no water and the roads are seriously flooded and the roads out of town are closed or cross at heavy risk.

Gas up all vehicles. 2 bins of food, gatorade, and water. 

You can also take the end caps off the gutters , that way on a heavy rain it will push some leaves out 

He doesn't invest in stock and 401k afaik.Anyway i think different people have different cup of tea in terms of investment vehicle. it's good to know their stories from both side and determine which one you choose.

Maybe work on timing to have the tenant's vehicles out of the way.

Except for the loan where you would be better to lease the vehicle.

Thank you @Todd Dexheimer and @Michael Le@Jeff Greenberg it's a very light value add. most of the heavy lifting had already been done. for this deal it's more about getting a solid, low risk income stream for the investor. in short we'll make cosmetic upgrades to units when they turn in order to keep growing rents 2% to 3% average per year.
