But it would be a good bargaining chip if there is such a law here.

I am invested in Forest Park and Oak Park, Illinois, a few miles west of Chicago and plan to buy more as possible.

Also, be sure to look at the wood type...we went with a hickory, harder than oak.

@Chip Chronister ..You can list with an agent and pay a flat fee.

These areas are close to the action in Ferndale and Royal Oak but more affordable.

It would have taken me years and years to chip away at that debt otherwise.I'll admit that a lot of this could be put down to luck, and being in the right place at the right time... but being a savvy investor really just means making yourself aware of and open to the opportunities in your current place and time, whatever they may be.

I told him a cheap simple solution would be to line HIS side of the fence with oak pallets and I told him where to get them for free.

@Chip Chronister I'm assuming that you are trying to sell it by yourself, you don't have an agent, correct?

@Tony is exactly right Johnson county is like a blue chip stock.

So I drove through an area called oak cliff (complete war zone in dallas) and I came across a small neighborhood called encino hills.
