Thanks everyone, but the renovation part of this is 98% done, with still a little room for improvement... which is my downfall because I keep thinking of new ways to keep pouring money into this thing, and I gotta stop that.I've broken up my story because I have a thousand progress photos.So why don't I continue.....Ah, the photo is right side up.So that chair and the metal desk came with the house.

As a Finance Director at a soon to be IPO tech company, every set of numbers I analyzed told me the same story...sell the building.

Much of what happened to the floor was part of normal wear & tear - chairs at the dining room, etc."

Rents are 475+500 for the apartments good for the area the the salon is 60 per chair 

You have some of the brightest members on BP and professional investors providing feedback (a defacto board of directors for you).

We bring a card table, folding chairs, extra applications and a copier to copy ID and paycheck stubs.  

Then, I had a phone call with the executive director of this program and he said that he was going to have John Doe call me (that hasn't happened after waiting 2 weeks).

Remember the game "musical chairs"?

We'll see if that continues.My view is that the winter here might be a good time to buy some fixer properties (hopefully) as the arm chair investors get out of the mix with the winter weather starting.
