You sound exhausted, discouraged, and mentally defeated.

I am not trying to get in a D-measuring contest here, I am just a bit exhausted of the OH agents spamming on here how OH is the in-all end-all place to be.

I am so exhausted of the pity party on BP.

As to the OP question, if your vent line just connects to a wall mounted exhaust that empties directly outside at that point, then the vent line should have simply been replaced at the time of the equipment change-out.

Exhaust the free resources, figure out what kind of strategy you want to use, a market, etc. and go from there.I will say, I probably wouldn't sell the stocks to invest in real estate.

The exhaustion and lack of flexibility of working for someone else is what drove me here.

Make sure you have reserves and try to get private lending so you keep reserves on the side and don’t exhaust your liquid funds.I bought my first BRRRR deal in Feb 2020, days before the covid lockdown, had an extremely difficult time finding subcontractors at anything but ridiculous prices, materials kept climbing in price, the rehab ended up taking months longer and costing $30k over budget.Let me tell you I was chewing off my nails the whole darn time, wondering if we’d be plunged into a recession and if I’d lose everything…Somehow, I still came out on top with the refinance topping my all-in costs by $35 - $40k and now have had rockstar tenants in there for almost 10 months.

We are saving a lot each month for a down payment but I’d like to know if I have more options to purchase instead of exhausting my cash reserves. 

I've been analyzing several properties to the point of exhaustion over the past few weeks.

I started with 1 and am now at 80 and it is exhausting.
