I wouldn't want someone to hold back, I prefer honesty and straight talk.

I truly appreciate your advice/suggestions & honesty regarding the area.

I know no one's going to care there about the plight of a landlord, but in all honesty - who cares if he dies of exposure?

Hi Chloe, good on you for your honesty, being honest with yourself and others goes a long way!

Thanks Bruce, Definitely learned a few things from this post and really appreciate your honesty. 

Nothing is wrong with trying to get them business but I do like honesty. 

Hi @Yents Ybrimovic - I love the FHA 203k renovation, but to be honest I love the Fannie May HomeStyle renovation loan even more.As an investor and a general contractor, I have used both products here in Chicago!

Only rental cabins catch on fire and not primary residences.In all honesty, though, I would agree that something that size should be treated more as a commercial property any way and the sprinkler system makes sense to me.

To be honest I have not thought that far yet :) .
