I spent a good amount to redo the unit and put it on market and I found a new tenant who looked good on paper with no evictions, clear background (except for 1 record from 2004 due to possession of 30 grams marijuana which is now legalized).

It took the cleaning lady six hours to clean that two bedroom unit ... and she was concerned she was not able to get all of the grime.

Grimes: Hello All!

Just a little nasty gram from the state of CA that makes a lot of my clients think twice before moving property into CA.

Oregon is dead serious about this stuff ... so is Nevada.I made one post on B P about wanting to just find a MLO to do a note deal for me in NV and I got a nasty gram from the state of Nevada.. stating that yes I am licensed in ORegon but not Nevada and have I done any loans and if I had they would sanction me.Now you can go right across the river to WA and NO licensed required for business purpose loans.IN CA you need either RMLO or  A RE broker.. those who say you don't  are just wrong...

@Scott Grimes The location of your CPA isn't as crucial as their experience with real estate.

send funds via money gram or western union..

Come home and immediately go downstairs before tracking grime through the home.
