During the flood the house easily stayed high and dry.

Give it ample time to dry out as well before doing anything with it again.

The amount of dry rot is immeasurable - big holes in shower walls duct taped over. 

I wrap the roller/brush I use in an old bag and store it in the freezer between coats so it doesn't dry out and I can keep using it again until I'm through with the process.If you rent the sander pick up a ton of the grit paper. 

While I am new to real estate investing and still educating myself on the concept, I have been intrigued by it time and time again from the podcasts, personal stories I read, and the wealth of knowledge answering questions I search for before actually asking.My question however stems from my personal situation.

But maybe I'm being unfair...Becoming a real estate agent is certainly on my to-do list...I think my impatience stems from some of the success stories I've read on BiggerPockets - people working menial jobs but managing to buy that first place, kick-starting their RE careers.

Dry cleaning service that comes to the building, mobile car wash that comes to the building, option for chef provided meals (from a local caterer), on site maintenance personnel etc.  

Hi Doug,Sometimes paint will run over stain sealer or when painting over semi-gloss or latex paint over oil based paint, let dry completely and sand or spackle runs and repaint.

I'm looking for recommendations for title companies near the Frederick, md area that have conducted dry (where transactional funding is not required) double closings before.Thanks in advance! 

Hi Ken,I think about quitting my job every time I am asked to do any work.... at work. lol but my main fear is "what will i do if the real estate well suddenly dries up?"
