Originally posted by Bryan Hancock:One of the calculations that happens frequently is that someone figures a project return for a project that takes less than a year and then annualizes it.So that time I rolled through Vegas and threw a quarter into a slot machine and got two back wasn't really the 630,720,000% ROI I've been bragging about????

Now instead of just moving a piece of insulation a little to the right, this joker took a picture, printed in color, had a computer arrow put in, and then warned the buyer about it.

In that, Granite came on to the market and had the first real platform of sales, opposed to broker joker circles, where the investors were all pitted against each other on a first come first serve basis.  

The only difference these days is that the modular vinyl windows can be bought preassembled with gas sealed between glass panes and slotted into existing window openings.Whatever you do, Andy, good luck in your business.

For anything that's an emergency, myself or one of my representatives will make all arrangements and meet with the contractors at the home, and under those circumstances we generally dictate the terms directly to the tenant (i.e. there's no heat and the HVAC guy has one slot open this afternoon, that's when we are going to be there regardless of convenience). 

If you are out of fannie/freddie slots and only have a few properties that you haven't refinanced yet, why not roll the remaining properties into a blanket and cash out to max LTV. 

Thereby opening up more slots for you to buy your next property or refinance the property using a Fannie loan.

Which is basically the turn key business.Joe Bertolino  Agreed  there is so much more to CA OR WA NV ID UT   than just 20 miles from the oceans. in all these areas if you look just a little bit you can buy properties that will match mid west or deep south.. but generally not SFR's generally you need to buy units.. which is really a smarter move for many use up your loan slot for 4 doors instead of one... use your 4 mortgages for 16 doors instead of two. that type of thing.  

I am selling a new construction home to a owner occ buyer and everyone lawyers up.. its a joke really.

What are your thoughts about purchasing parking slots/spaces in commercial areas?
