And this is why I chose to work with you while we both burn the midnight oil!

During review attorney passed along that a there's a decommissioned underground oil tank, I saw reports/permits from state of that.

I’m looking to start out in real estate but I’m seeing prices on homes of $100k-200k higher than they were 1-4 year ago.Even fishing for leads and off market deals is it safe to rely on average per sq. ft. in my market?

Buy a new fishing pole!!

Specs on this house:  4 bed, 2 bath, "ugly" house, decent condition, needed new roof, we subsequently discovered a previously abandoned oil tank which seller had to remove.   

You have a great philosophy in regards to paying to learn as much as you can.In 1972 I paid $6,000 to go to a one-day seminar and everyone said I was crazy, but I learned many things that day that stuck in my head and many of those things helped helped me to make my business much more successful.I wrote what I did because I'm burned out from going to too many real estate club meetings where they bring in snake oil salesment, but I should have stated that there are some legitimate companies. 

Didn't think to go look at all the water meters.There's a famous case in accounting where a company valued full tanks of salad oil.

My goal now is simply to amass enough cash flow to replace my lost retirement and finally retire as soon as possible so I can go fishing, permanently! 

But what if they HATE everything new con, what if there hobby is lake front luxury, and they have gone to every home show, fished every lake, for decades?

Does anyone have experience converting from oil heat to electric in an apartment complex?
