The REI community here is very active.

I’m even considering buying thick rugs to give the tenants above but even that sucks to have to tell tenants what they need in their home.I really love the community on this site.

Meanwhile, if you ever consider other markets for diversification, places like Omaha, Chicago, Austin, San Diego, San Antonio or right here in Phoenix each have their own flavor of opportunity.Out of curiosity, how do you see Jasper fitting into your broader investment goals?

The second reward is that you add value to the community by renovating eyesores.

I am not able to take equity out of my condo because it is currently on the blacklist due to HOA fixing the roofing and a Fannie Mae rule stating, if more then 50% of the condos in that community are owned by investors, I may not be able to refi.
