The rehab on one has reached epic infill proportions!

This mold stuff is blown WAY out of proportion.  

Not to mention there was little soil compaction done back in those days.You should see some of the crap I find when excavating in Philly

He pulled 12 feet of compacted broccoli out of the drain pipes!

I have noticed this occasionally for years, but it has reached epidemic proportions of late, probably 60% of my messages.

There have been numerous academic studies that show that the large proportion of one's returns are determined by ASSET ALLOCATION.

Some examples of entertainment are beach life or skiing.So do you see people spreading out.... or staying compact like cans of tuna?

I did some research into those boarded up & vacant properties in the neighborhood about which you speak, and interestingly, a large proportion of them are actually owned by one entity - a large, out-of-state hedge fund.The hedge fund purchased them 2-3 years back, and interestingly, to date, it has decided not to do anything with them - the properties remain vacant & boarded up. 

In such a joint venture, the income is proportionally divided between the JV partners in accordance with their capital contributions.  

However the risk is proportional to your knowledge.
