Like in 2003-07 Noe valley changed tremendously, with values that started to approach super established and blue chip areas like pacific heights.

Beyond building our business model and listening to the BiggerPockets podcast every day, I've just been chipping away at my real estate licensing classes.

Since we have a cash flow portfolio already, we don't need to time when the next peak come, just keep investing, keep leveraging, until the next peak just pass...Then it is time to hit and run, cash in all my chips please.

I got a lower price as I used the fact we didn't need a realtor as a bargaining chip. 

Also, on hot days the cabinets will stick and could possibly chip in the high spots. 

Peeling and chipped paint, splash blocks missing, lose gutters, cracked glass window even in an out building had to be repaired.

Painting a common area wall that has graffiti or chipping paint is R&M.

They left the original cabinets and the chipped up counter top. 

I want to cover my myself, but don't want to shell out $1500+/- when I feel like the seller should be chipping in. 

Also, there's the time, energy and brain damage of filing and pursuing a small claims lawsuit.You might want to talk with the Seller and see if they might chip in $1000 or so on this, but most sellers are going to tell you no (although it doesn't hurt to ask).My thoughts are you might want to chalk this one up to experience and move on.
