I have done two deals in Washington, but neither was done with a "creative" strategy and were pretty cut and dry.  

Two are fine but one needs work regarding the dry wall & bathroom tiling. 

DID THEY DRY OUT YOUR UNIT?!

You are better off writing into your lease that if a leak starts to happen and they don't tell you then they are responsible for the cost of the excess damage/water.

Account ClosedWorking at Holton-Wise and seeing how many tenant leads we get daily, in an excess of 50+, even if the Cleveland population is "decreasing" people are constantly looking for new apartments/doubles/houses to move into.

I recommend minimum 4 coats with poly.  2 seal coats with buffing between and 2 final coats  You can use water base as  well if you prefer, finishing will dry faster allowing for more coats.

This has caused office demand shrinkage and excess inventory on the market even though not much new office is being built.

Look for an 'excess & surplus" general agent.

But right now good deals have dried up.

Should I sell my house, use any excess profit I make to purchase a duplex and start over from?
