That is not how it should work, but it is something I can't control.I have also been told ludicrous things by the platforms, where they side with a guest who is clearly in the wrong and manipulating the system, yet the platform sides with them.  

Hey mate,Take your time (As much time as necessary) to get the right feet on the ground first and foremost.Many folks get caught up in the attractive numbers a potential market presents and completely neglect building a team.A good ream on the ground will make or break your investment and not so much the demographics of an area itself.You can minimize your risk by buying super cheap thus hedging any "mistakes" you make in rehab or by working with the wrong people.Be patient and negotiate tough and you should find a bargain.We do even in today's market although much less often than 3-4 years ago.Direct mail, wholesalers and good old Craigslist are just some ways we buy a lot of our properties.We are also on the list of various disposition managers that send us deals.This site has some decent deals from time to time also - https://investorlift.com/And forget about appraisals unless you manipulate them.It's a blood joke if you ask me... lolI've had deals appraise for less than we bought and rehabbed which is impossible.And I'm pretty confident that my company has bought, fixed and sold more properties in our lifetime than many appraisers have appraised.Appraisers sometimes like to be A$$holes and give a lower appraisal just to screw with the flippers profit.I think they sometimes do this out of jealousy lolIt's a funny world we live in.Just my 2 Aussie cents.Much success 🙏

In the middle of the summer if you go out an hour or two after dark in the city it is one temp and you can feel the heat radiating off of the block walls and asphalt streets still.

About 90,000 individuals in the Milwaukee, WI area were left without power due to snow storms and below freezing temps.

The home must not get too cold.The fourth is to use heat tape, this is pretty amazing stuff but it on;y works down to a certain temp so I would suggest not just relying on heat tape.Fifth, hose bibs are one of the biggest issues because they expose your water line to the outside temps.

And they are absolutely the best choice if you are looking for the most efficient energy -friendly solution.Re Heat Pumps, yes they are a good choice, but like most central conditioning systems, you have to heat/cool the entire house just to get one area to the temp you want.

I really don't understand why would they want to set the temp that high and leave the door open.  

Shake my head, tell her to turn down heater to 72deg and if she gets cold at that temp to put sweat pants on.

Levered returns can be easily manipulated and, while used, increase overall risk in the deal.

Temp was still fairly mild at 16.
