Also, there are sub forums on BP that are just your geographical area so maybe post there as well.

Anything bigger than that and we call a foundation crew)* Demo* Minor insulation (anything more than a couple of rooms and it's better to get an insulation company to do it)* Siding and house wrap* Hardware installation (Door knobs and whatnot)* Window installation* Door installation... and that's their entire job description.

During your first year at the station you have to pass some pretty strenuous tests, one of which has heavy focus on the directional and geographical capabilities of the firefighter and how well they know their area.

@Holly Baum Thanks Holly, so maybe just put in the rental listing description that the 4th bedroom and basement living space have 6.5' ceilings?  

In the past few weeks/months, though, I've seen outliers that are $130+/sqft that by the description are no different than neighboring houses that are still selling for $100/sqft, and these aren't rehabbed houses.  

FHA loans (the loans with 3.5% down) do put a limit of one FHA loan in one geographical commuting area but you can have as many Conventional loans as you want.  

Also you can only have one FHA loan at a time unless you move out of the geographical commuting area for that home.I hope this information helps.  

But your description was backwards -$1M list price divided by $100K difference after expenses = 10% cap?

I can't be sure what the issue is based on your description, but I like finding properties other people are unsure of, or scared of because of things like that: it's just a big old hammer to use when it comes time to negotiate, and/or means fewer people are going to be interested in the property.I also happen to be an engineer, and I've done a fair amount of construction in my life, including masonry and framing work, so not much scares me.
