Sherry Young was injured along with four others, including three firefighters, the Detroit Free Press reported.Young told the newspaper she had doused herself with rubbing alcohol before it was ignited by a stove and oven.

Once you have more than enough income stream from the US, taking some riskier gambles abroad may make sense.

In that time the water heater (brand new and installed 2022) built up soot on the ignition area, at one point the tenant repaired themselves and it worked but went out again.

Considering the fact that you already have a lot of equity locked into MFH that's essentially sitting at ~5 caps, I would think about diversifying a little bit and try to pick up some decent quality C SF housing that is a gamble on appreciation but can have some stronger cash flow.

And most of the value in the opportunities has been scaled off by all of the other players.Ok I’m gambling on the other side….

You might be able to find some materials online but you gamble on the quality.In my case this is what I follow:- Construction material locally so we quickly can resupply - Flooring locally (I find better prices and service this way)- Plumbing locally (I bought online for my first remo and quality was really bad) locally are more expensive but I don't gamble anymore as plumbing is something that is always a time constraints to complete and continue other works.- Electronic fixtures like fans, etc online.

People who can't, or won't, afford to pay up for excellent representation will be gambling with the biggest purchase they are likely to ever make in their lifetime.

If there is a potential for loss of any kind, then you are using their funds for your benefit - i.e. gambling with other peoples money - so definitely a place you don't want to go.

I had an extremely similar situation last year, it was a property I was fixing up to sell, the main contractor had some issues (maybe drinking, drug or gambling) and kept asking me for money saying he needed to pay the crew and has been working really hard.
