Obtain my driving license (only available slots in my area are on weekdays) and 2.

Enter new to home buying guy and wife looking to buy a home in San Antonio to live in then rent out.Home listed for $220k it was a flip and was purchased for $60k less than a year ago.Exterior looks wonderful, inside looks great.Original 100yr+ hardwood floors, everything looks very shiny.As we are walking around we start flipping switches, flushing toilets etc.One toilet in particular makes a very gurgly sound that doesn’t seem right and some hall lights don’t work.Our RE agent is all about telling us to hire a General Inspector which will cost about $400 to inspect the property and tell us if anything needs to be fixed.As we look around we start to see more problems.There is a place in the roof where the roof has raised away from the house leaving a sizeable hole to the attic.There is no drip edge along the roof.The breaker box has empty slots in it that let us see into the drywall.Knowing this was a flip we investigated on another Texas State website to look at all the filed permits for the new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing, and got nothing.No permits filed at that house.Red flag?

Since you say there are two doors underneath, a possibility (assuming this structure is level with the rim joist) is to slot the rim joist and cantilever 12-16' 2x8 or 2x10s to take the point load at the house, and then locate the outer beams properly.

I get it that everyone wants to come to the party, especially now with prices having risen fairly dramatically, but sometimes I wonder if the Bigger Pockets room is akin to standing on the floor of a casino where a few people have won dramatic sums in some of the "skills" games (poker, blackjack, etc), and everyone else starts running out into the hallways begging for money to drop in the slot machine so they can get theirs too.Anyway, it seems an interesting philosophical question to ponder, and I'm curious what others may think!

BE WARY OF A JOKER WHO CLAIMS TO BE ZUBIN ENGINEER FROM HOUSTON, TX!!

Now, the management company wants to fine me for going over our move-in time slot (which is loosely stated in the rules, but not the point).  

:joker: needed more lightening up

Our syndication clients typically have the earliest time slots on our calendar and have excellent books reviewed regularly so we do not have to rush at the last minute.

Be confident that you know you're rights and that they better jump to or they're going to be at risk for losing their ability to provide PM services at all.Either a BB complaint or a complaint to a realtor's association or some other group that governs the PMs in that state will go a long way to costing this joker any more business.But, no matter what, you clearly need to get out of that company fast.

Whether that stems from incompetence, lack of education or malicious intent, take your pic, all those guys were at the party.So fast forward to 2013, those broker jokers are still in the market.
