Enjoy some beautiful weather and remember that it is who you are with, not what your room looks like like great memories.

Not super warm during the winter, but plenty of days in the 60's & 70's and overall great weather. 

How are the number shaking out for you from what you forecast, at least in terms of your updates/repairs?

The most important thing is having enough cash reserves to weather a economic downturn and to ensure your properties are only 60% leveraged.Perhaps make a post asking if there are any investors here that speak your native language and see if they can help fill in details. :)

Gotta make sure you or reading it correctly and forecasting for changes.

I just bought 2 years ago in Summerlin.. and we do half a dozen flips in Vegas a year.. been very good to us.. we do the 6 to 6.5 months a year .. other than weather your tax situation wont change. but boy compared to being a Oregon resident.. what I save in tax being a NV resident paid for the house I bought LOL  within 3 years.

The weather is crappy today so I'm going to go over there after work just to check up on things so we can press forward on wrapping things up. 

Everyone is talking about the coming housing correction but I think Seattle has very strong fundamentals that it will be able to weather the storm quite well. 

The FHA says that examples of such problems include but are not limited to the following: Missing handrailsCracked or damaged exit doors that are otherwise operableCracked window glassDefective paint surfaces in homes constructed post-1978 (because of lead paint hazards)Minor plumbing leaks (such as dripping faucets)Defective floor finishes or coverings (worn through the finish, badly soiled carpeting)Evidence of previous (non-active) wood-destroying insect/organism damage where there is no evidence of unrepaired structural damageRotten or worn-out counter topsDamaged plaster, sheetrock or other wall and ceiling materials in homes constructed post-1978Poor workmanshipTrip hazards (cracked or partially heaving sidewalks, poorly installed carpeting)Crawl spaces with debris and trashLack of an all-weather driveway surface=================There are many areas, however, where the FHA does require problems to be remedied in order for the sale to close.Electrical and Heating The electrical box should not have any frayed or exposed wires.All habitable rooms must have a functioning heat source (except in a few select cities with mild winters).Roofs and Attics The roofing must keep moisture out.The roofing must be expected to last for at least two more years.The appraiser must inspect the attic for evidence of possible roof problems.The roof cannot have more than three layers of roofing.If the inspection reveals the need for roof repairs and the roof already has three or more layers of roofing, the FHA requires a new roof.Water HeatersThe water heater must meet local building codes and must convey with the property.Hazards and NuisancesA number of conditions fall under this category.

He told me he that’s all he uses any more.In that cold of weather you have to use installation.
