@Stephanie Dupuis I don't think lowering commissions per se is the right way to go, I just think there should be genuine competition.

Probably similar to you, there are no codes per-se that govern the amount of people per room in my area.  

I don't want to start a business per se, I basically just want to figure out where to invest my $200,000 after I sell my house.  

simply targeting key words and phrases related to 'generic' SE searches, then your results, will vary.)

No appreciation, per se, like on SFR.Flips aren't investing at all, IMHO.

For me every house I buy to rehab and sell, although per se, I am not "emotional" as in I have no problem walking away it I can't make the numbers work.When I buy a house I take into consideration what the house can look like when I'm done with renovations, and I always try to take the woman's point of view, I know they are the key determining factor behind most of our sales, just over 30 percent of our houses are actually sold to single women which I found rather interesting when I did the analysis.And I do not believe that prices are necessarily the driving factor especially for first time home buyers which is the market that we sell most of our homes to.

FEMA recently remapped our area (SE Michigan) and put a lot of the properties in the neighboring town in flood zones.

I've read a little about "zeroes" but it sounds like zero cashflow isn't necessary per se.

At some point there will be a forced liquidation per se, and you will have to take required minimum distributions.
