But the right interior decor really helps elevate the "wow factor" with a home, so it's typically a good investment that pays for itself. 

As for local meetups, here are a couple you should check out: COIN, Elevate, and the Columbus multi-family investor meet-up. 

(Link to the full video below)Another point to elevated home prices I am hearing nobody talk about ANYWHERE is the VERY strong incentive to thousands of government agencies to KEEP home prices elevated, and to induce more. 

Then engineering reports and architectural elevations.

A good group called "EagleLift" brought out a Zip-Leveller and measured every room elevation difference.

When I know I can get the floors sturdy, then I shift focus to these priorities in this order:- Functionality of exterior doors (doors MUST lock and latch for security)- Functionality of interior doors (fit in their pocket latch properly with good reveal on top)- Levelness of trim (counters, windowsills, door frames, chair moulding and any other trim as level as we can)- Levelness of floors (I we fix the first three...the floors will be whatever they must be)What drives the cost to a P&B:- Elevation off the ground / access to interior (sometimes the only opening is on a remote closet inside)- Amount of termite/wood rot damageDon’t be scared by a P&B, they can be great homes, just may require a little more TLC or periodic maintenance in the form of reshimming and adjusting.  

The last several years we have seen "historic" floods and the elevation offered by pier and beam over a slab to me makes my properties more secure.

Elevation report & Quote are below. 

So if someone can tell me their "elevator pitch" I would be grateful.

So if an owner has an issue (water heater breaks, etc) they know who they are dealing with, I know local contractors, etc and no one ever gets put on hold to listen to elevator music or asked to press 30 automated phone selections to get to a live person.
