Brush a little bit how do you handle brush usually with prescribed burns.. the issues are houses on mountains and I suspect there is a good amount of people that planted Euculyptus trees years ago those things are just like light a roman candle.. and 60 to 100 mile an hour winds..

The market seems to have a lot going for it with the beach, the lively downtown, the historical appeal and the night of lights draw during the winter months.

There was also a failing retaining wall in the rear of the property that completely blocked natural light form a handful of houses, and was technically on the property line and a shared responsibility.

If the property only needs light cosmetic updates, 3 months might be doable, but for more extensive renovations, it’s going to take longer. 

First impressions matter and presenting a property in its best light can attract potential buyers and increase its market value.

You probably know this already, but you don't want to put yourself in a situation where you are struggling to keep the lights on in the event that you put all of your equity into this home and can't take any out. 

-"light value add" won't cut it if you want to refinance and get most of your outlay back out. 

Rooftop has amazing views of the ocean and city lights.

A fresh coat of paint in a modern neutral color and updated lighting can really elevate those spaces.Adding a deck or patio can be a great way to increase usable living space and boost value.

Light Cosmetic: $25-$40 per sq. ft.
