Over the next 6 - 12 months I believe I will be able to get all of my initial capital contributions back out of the businesses.As far as the equity that I feel comfortable having today, let me just say that I am happy to be taking some of the chips off the table by selling some of our properties right now and locking in some profits.  

We had stopped doing flips after 2018 because there were just too many investors living the Chip & Joanna life paying too much for properties and driving up the acquisition price on flips.

Much more relaxing than dodging flying debris as they chip up the tile floors.  

If you go darker trim your going to have chip marks and white will pop back thru more than likely,I'd keep the white,, or just go same color as wall for window and base trim.. and use brown on doorsDoing the base trim and window trim the same color in a different sheen semi gloss.. makes the room look endless and bigger, easy to touch up and if you over paint the trim it's not going to show.... 

Hey fellow community owners, I was wondering if anyone has experience securing agency or CMBS debt on a mobile home park with chip n' seal roads? 

There is Gentrification moving from Prospect Lefferts Garden southward towards Brooklyn College and this house is in that path.NYC Investments are not based on Current Cash Flows but on Future Cash Flows.So once you get the understanding that the Cash Flow you calculate you can get NOW is acceptable, even if slightly negative, then you need to analyze how much will the rents and expenses grow.You will need to look at the economics to understand the Appreciation Rate.You can also do great just by having a fixed rate mortgage constantly being chipped away by your tenants.All of these things can be calculated.When you put the whole thing together, then you will get a very good understanding of your Investment.In many ways, Investing in this way can be much more profitable than straight cash flow now investing.

i am shocked that no one has mentioned Kitchen Kompact.here is how it looks. this is Chad OakI just did one with 14 cabinets, toe kicks, crown molding for around $1400. that's cabinets only. this is the same line, just a darker finish:all the builders get it here since they are available the next day from the warehouse close by. it ends up being about $100 per cabinet and you dont have to stain, assemble, all that crap. they are great cabinets, wooden doors. the back is a little thin, but never had an issue.they dont even have a display at HD. you have to ask and they can show you the different (4-5) door styles they have. they are 4x better than in store stock junk.http://www.kitchenkompact.com/styles2.htmi looked at the sites you posted above. the % discount doodoo is a red flag of "let's make it look like a whole sale price and website (very busy is the motto here) and still charge people that look for a deal $2-3k+ for a 10x10 kitchen. then we will get them on the "Accessories"". so you think it's a "great discount place, screw these box stores".the only negative with KK is when i did the darker one. looks AMAZING, but the saw was not sharp enough and it chipped the corners. the DARK skin is VERY thin and the white below shows and stands out like a sore thumb.noone can beat HD KK cabinet prices and delivery. i have tried their other distributors and they were all higher.i can go on and on, but if i have not convinced you by now, i should just stop.

Chipping paint broken elevators, Collapsing ceilings BC the government really sucks at being a landlord.

Still cheap as chips, wont last ....

Thanks @Brie Schmidt as you said, if I do my due diligence on the tenants and determine they're going to cause me issues, I'll either use that as a bargaining chip, or walk away.
