Get the "spec grade" switches and outlets that sell for about $1 apiece, rather than the ones that cell for $0.50 apiece - the spec grade ones last longer and are nicer to install. 

The area is beautiful, private grade school a few buildings down.

Milwaukee has every type of neighborhood you could want, all the way from A-D grade. 

Hi All,I'm considering building a B grade duplex in small town NC and wondering what the sweet spots are in terms of sq ft, BDR, and Bath.

These items that are available to you and GC are very very helpful to make sure all are on the same page.You will want to include:- Term of Coverage Needed (Start and End Date)- Construction Material (Wood Frame vs Steel Frame example)- Occupancy of Building- Stories Above and Below Grade- Sqft of BuildingQuick Thoughts that should be helpful:- Start of a Builders Risk Policy: You typically want to start a builders risk when you are mobilizing or when you have materials at site, whichever start first.- Do you want Earth Movement, Flood or Named Windstorm Coverage, what sublimit will you be looking for if so.- Do you want Delay in Opening Coverage?

Thank you I’m going to check out the Cleveland market because you’re totally right, mo matter what happens to values rent will stay somewhat consistent  Wyatt if Cleveland is a target market for you I suggest you check out The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods during your due diligence phase.

In any market, some landlords are going to list way too low, some too high, and properties vary widely in grade, layout, block, and other factors that rentometer data does not calculate well into the results produced. 

What were your grades in high school?

What stuck out to me was the low grade appliances.

There’s also water coming in along the edge of the slab (that is below grade in the back since it’s a tri-level) and into the half of the home that has a basement during a hard rain.
