This guy must have learned how to shave in the 21st century because he hasn't complained since.

Albert Einstein once said, "The greatest invention of the 20th century is compound interest".  

I do not look back and wish I had managed my payment risk by stretching my pmts into the next century or feel I have squandered the $178 a month on a low ROI investment.

(But for a rental on lower end finishes something that looks like it) -tile (will last ) -vinyl - laminateThose are two things that never get old and you see them in new homes and ones that are a century old .

(They are newer construction and this is early 19th century) It would be a short sale even though it's priced below the assessed value and will require considerable rehab. 

>I think you'd be hard pressed to get anything to cash flow there with a decent ROI.Multiple sources indicate there is no market that has produced better ROI for the buy n hold investor than San Francisco for this century. 

The City's hay-day ended a century ago.I was thinking you might have insight as you dance in the 1Mil+ rehabs.  

This is obviously from 40+ years ago, and this person has been long gone, and hasn't expressed interest in the property in almost a half-century.

That is what will make your furniture last for centuries, without having to refinish.

The same age group died by the thousands in countless generations over the centurys in wars.
