The single-minded focus on cash flow, even while house-hacking, has prevented so many people from buying here in Denver and Colorado Springs. 

I'm underwriting a building now that's in a salt air city, a block from the beach. 

Also, there is no visible mold and no mold smell in the basement (there is a little on the caulking beneath a single pane picture window upstairs which I'll deal with).That didn't sit too well with the tenants as they have been looking online and finding information about how dangerous it might be, and it didn't help that the first report that I had done the inspector attached a boilerplate message recommending a full HVAC cleaning (ducting is 1 year old) HEPA vacuum, air scrubbers, double washing everything in the unit with bleach, etc. so now the tenants are being fairly combative and insisting that more needs to be done.

I’m active duty Air Force…I look forward to hearing more about your journey.I wish you all the best.

The fresh air, exercise, and mental clarity are all major benefits.

I don't know if there are privacy protection laws preventing this in Canada though.

Our first contractor screwed up the flooring, he did not handle the sound prevention so now the neighbor underneath is complaining the noise from our floor.

They heard nothing I said.. they just wanted me to move the trellis so they can have air in their window and the dog can look at the wildlife in MY yard.

I’m active duty Air Force as well.

My realtor informed me that he attempted to persuade the buyer to increase their offer to $224k, but their budget constraints prevented this.
