Lots of sellers will tell you to buzz off-- those are exactly the ones you need to watch out for.

It's pretty common nowadays.

You can certainly try to get $20k from airbnb, but in the meantime you're going to have to have guests there. so I'd do the $1000 cleaning + furniture now, get guests back in the property, and run as usual, The problem nowadays with fires, and the reason that he shouldn't get guests in until this is professionally remediated, is that a lot of particulates are released into the air when materials combust.

To do this we issue (ie sell) bonds/ securities, which the Fed is generally the primary buyer of such nowadays, not long ago China was among primary buyers.

I'm on a few lists nowadays and will glance at new properties they have available. 

Bonds: It's kind of a waste of time nowadays, but needed for your asset allocation according to your risk tolerance.  

Plus, from what I've been reading on BP blogs, cash-flow positive deals are really hard to come by nowadays in Southern California.I'm open to any ideas and opportunities so long as they will enable me to learn and generate a modest return.Feel free to keep in touch and let us know if come across anything interesting.Cheers!

Nowadays every stupid little thing is scrutinzed...especially as it relates to self-employed borrowers.

Nowadays I look for places that need minimal work so I can still enjoy a project or two and still get to spend time with my loved ones. 

@Don Coumbs  The "buzz words" you may need in talking to your Planning Department is to ask if you can develop as a PUD (Planned Unit Development) You basically get the density of the subdivided lots, but don't actually split the lots, though each property owns and is responsible for their portion of the lot, and hence why it's necessary to have a HOA or Condo Association.
