I am rooting for you!

I'm currently living at the park, working on grass roots marketing (flyers, signs, joing chamber, etc.), I've done some Facebook and Google stuff with really so/so results. 

My only thing is, if I were to finally plant roots in LA, I would need to either sell the FL property or take the equity out for a down payment since the prices are so much higher here.

The heat was very high recently and the air conditioner above unit had some issue and the water dipped from the pipe of that unit and damaged my unit.So I requested clarification to my property management company how they provided a quote without identifying the root cause, but haven't got any response yet.

I think the root cause of the stress over the repair is that I don't trust tenants telling the truth given he lied about a long term lease and actually only looked for a flexible arrangement until he found a house to buy.

I would like to ultimately get up to multi unit properties but especially since I’m starting roots long distance in a new area my goal is SFR only at the moment.

We are rooting for you!

So obviously, fixing and flipping it out for me (unless my spouse has some interior decorating skill I have yet to see in 20+ years), and being a landlord is in the same category of punishment as a root canal.

Like maybe a do it yourself combination laser eye surgery and root canal or maybe buying a new set of tires for your car and trying to mount them on the rims by yourself.
