Hi Chris, I'm not sure where the $128k came from but that's not the case at all.

Chris Mason Thanks Chris will do.

@Chris May I have been asking for and receiving fairly large discounts on the properties I have purchased in Oakland. 

Chris T.While we are not flippers, we do use a similar approach by purchasing tired properties and forcing appreciation: it is just rehab-n-hold as opposed to rehab-n-sell.When we are carrying out a deep retrofit on a newly acquired property, we will put a sign in the yard advertising another "modern, heathy and energy efficient home in the making"  with an indication of when it will be available for rent.We typically have the units rented before the renovation is complete.

@Chris Tracy @Joe Belman what expenses are usually too high?

I would like to invest more in Pasco County.Thanks,Chris

@Chris Bell Just heard yesterday we got a very aggressive offer accepted on a commercial building so things are off to a good start!
