@Joe EvangelistiThank you for hitting it hard to those who are just observers and not action takers in real estate investing.

There are some gems of antiques here.Above the attic is a Belvedere which gives a panoramic of the city - at the time the house was built the owner would have been able to observe both the dockyard and, later, his cotton mill from here.There is also a 2-story plus walk-out basement carriage house (800 ft^2 / floor) on the property which could be turned into a triplex - once you cleared all of the old tack and antique furniture out of it.It was like a trip back in time - the grandeur of the place was impressive.The house - future?

My observations have been that leads have been less profitable than what I've heard of in the past.

I have observed that around 11AM east coast time is when these messages hit with greater frequency; coincidentally, that's about the same time as the west coast is getting their day started. 

also read some books from the Library or just buy: The Weekend Millionaire, The Millionaire Real Estate Investors These are my two all time favorites (they have cheese titles but very good readings) And most importantly you should go to your local  Real Estate Investor Club  a few times and observe who are the "do-ers" and not the "talkers".

A couple of observations from me (sorry to say) I'm sure you won't like.  

It doesn’t require a PM who observes unlawful practices to pursue corrective action.

The business model to develop Community Association Manager (CAM) licensing legislation (and other HOA legislation): 1) legislators consult with the Community Association Institute (CAI)) to craft a Bill aimed at mitigating abusive practices of property managers who are the very folks the CAI represents 2) CAI lobbyist and their CAI “dependable” legislators become Bill sponsors 3) the Bill is assigned to Committees with CAI “dependable” legislators 4) the Bill becomes law with little to no home owner input, full of promoting CAI interests, and heavy on fees and costs and processes imposed on CAMs and 5) the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) implements licensing rules highly reflective of CAI efforts but fail to even contain explicit language for CAMs to obey State law or an HOAs governing laws or for CAMs to report observed violation of the law thus ensuring oversight is empty from the home owner’s perspective.

The genuine genius of human ingenuity still gives me hope for humanity when I observe and learn from this ingenious breed of people.

I'm not a lawyer, so don't take that as gospel.Section 13-80-127(1)(a), C.R.S. provides for a two year statute of limitation of actions against construction professionals like architects, contractors, builders, builder-vendors, engineers, inspectors, and those performing or furnishing the design, planning, supervision, inspection, construction, or observation of construction of any improvement to real property.Section 13-80-104, C.R.S. provides that in no case shall any action be brought against any architect, contractor, builder or builder-vendor, engineer, or inspector performing or furnishing the design, planning, supervision, inspection, construction, or observation of construction of any improvement to real property more than six years after the substantial completion of the improvement to the real property.
