We bought the property seller-financed with power, a small bathroom/laundry building, a 40x60 metal shop building, an RV pad with 'full hookups' (power, water, septic) and not much else.  

Then I bought another "cheap" $400 printer and although it was fast (70 pages per minute), the envelope feeder only held 8 envelopes at a time.  

If they're vacant I often go peak in the windows.Some like Treasury auctions from IRS, DEA, federal agencies, they'll have open houses for a couple of days before the auction and sometimes the auction is held at or even inside the home.

For now all you are going to see is more of the same because the vast majority of inventory is being held by people with 4-sub 4 rates and they can't/won't want to afford elevated prices and 6+ rates.

Inventory has held steady around 5-6 months for some time now, with roughly 9% more active listings on the market in the metro now compared to Oct. 2023.

Assuming you have held your bitcoin for more than one year, they will be treated as long-term capital gains tax and then you can sell and move the funds into the deferred sales trust.

Quote from @Jon Taylor: @Pete Harper - Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code allows an investor to exchange property held for investment or business purposes for shares in a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) without triggering a taxable event.

I like 30 year arch shingles or the new metal roofs pending the climate.

If you do cover it I would cover it in sheet metal or something simple and cheap.

As someone who made a very healthy 6 figure W2 income for years, I only really appreciated the leverage power it held when I lost it due to a company reorg.
