I know I should ring their phones off the hook, but once I get someone on the phone, then what?

I dropped the price $18K from that to $249,999.00 a week ago and still the phone is not ringing.

They keep the podcasts in an educational format by taking time to explain the jargon or real estate terms that come up in the interviews.To make some local connections, I also recommend The RING/Baton Rouge REIA as a great place to start.  

After a few connections, the crimp rings are cheaper, and theoretically more reliable.You are also supposed to use nail plates through the joists/studs where your pex and romex are. 

I've chosen to invest in the first ring neighborhoods that are still walkable or bikeable to downtown.

Everything is a lesson in life and I feel like this rings true with all things RE.

Get your phone ringing.

Note that _technically_ caulking the trim rings is a Code violation but I would personally not have issue with it, and it's highly unlikely that it would be noticed by an inspector anyway.

I spend around 2k a unit for upgrades which include new vanity, replace toilet wax ring and guts, paint bathroom, replace shower/showerheads with low flow water saving ones, paint or stain kitchen cabinets, new laminate counters, tile back splash, paint entire unit a nice neutral gray, and paint all trim white.

does protecting the public ring any bells?
