Adrienne Binder How would you invest $500k to start flipping?
6 October 2021 | 48 replies
They do cash flow well but there is a particular weight that I feel every time a storm is in the gulf or a freeze happens in winter or the rain won’t stop… I guess the idea of getting in and out of flip projects every 45-90 days to get a return feels less risky I guess.

Ting Liu Pest control question for Chicago area
13 September 2021 | 4 replies
Hi Ting,I've had Pest Control companies that layed down a DMZ of sorts outside the buildings.Fire ants, ants, and a lot of other crawlies seem to stay away from the DMZ area--keeping them out of the house.I've had them do it in the pouring rain and on nice days.Maybe they do something like that in your area.If it's a problem, you can scheduled ongoing service for it--where they will come out and re-apply.Or you could pass the info on to the renter--it's less costly then her hiring an attorney (unless she is govt subsidized and gets free attorneys via legal aid).They also do a building inspection inside and out--looking for entry points that need to be "Repaired", but ants get in through the smallest cracks.If you have a slab foundation, they may be under the slab and coming through a crack in it--exterminators can handle that.One or two phone calls will get you a quick price, and being there when it happens to take notes on where the tech says to repair to prevent other insects coming in might be a smart move.I've seen long lines of ants outdoors coming up a metal handrail to an apartment and going into a tiny space at the corner of a window and into the apartment.

Jacob I Strauss To Sell or to Rent that is the question

Lastly I am a little wary of this property because the lot retains water so during heavy raining though it doesn't go to the house does make the backyard rather unusable.
