But as i was doing that project I new I would refi and cash out but the house was so bad that new siding, new roof, new windows and a complete refreshed interior was going to increase its value dramatically.

The current economic crisis is similar in some ways to what Japan experienced in the early 1990’s, however the (government) policy response is very different.After the 1989 Japanese equity market crash, the Bank of Japan continued to raise rates.

Take a look at the numbers below and let me know if you like the deal.Property #1: Purchase price of $17,500, newly touched up, renter is moving in now and just signed a 12 month lease at $550 per month, tenant pays all utilities except for trash ($60 per quarter), city just completed and approved an Inspection Report.Property #2: Purchase price of $17,500, needs to be refreshed (estimating ~$5,000), renter has been in for over 6 years, current lease at $650 per month, tenant pays all utilities except for trash ($60 per quarter)

If I were to leave to NYC I'd want to move to the bay area which is even more insanely expensive but I love being on the coast and easy access to gourmet sushi/japanese food is important to me!

His raw and blunt posts are a refreshing addition to BP and will be missed.

Networks need to be refreshed and people call often if it's not working or running slow.
