@Ericka Grant,We had a similar situation, young girl LOVED the place, signed contract, paid deposit.. then the day after the lease started, she told us her dad did a search, and said there were too many sex offenders nearby, and she wouldn't move in because she was afraid now (she saw it twice in person, no concerns).    

I'm leaning towards paying off my mortgage... help a girl out, BP!!

Being a lifelong city girl, I don't think I would enjoy living in central MA but I could definitely look into it as a place to purchase property that I'm not living in.

If not, you didn't have it anyway.One girl's two centsBest of luckStephanie

I am a numbers girl and Apartments and condos provide amenities that bring value to my customers.  

Hi I'm Joseph Woodman30 years old with two girls (5 & 3) and a boy on the way.I'm in the red hot (read: expensive) Northern Colorado market, but just had my mind opened to out of state investing. 

Hi guys and girls, my name is Mike G. from Las Vegas, my background in real estate is up to this point mostly education but I am taking massive indiscriminate action and acquiring properties.

I do this when trying to find someone I want repeat biz from and never knew a contractor to turn down free beers. if you're just looking for a 1 time work guy/girl then can skip that part. good luck!

You already get it girl! 

I've been listening to all of the podcasts for over a year but I'm not a "chat forum" kind of girl.
