Kishora -- Anytime we've had holdups in permits I email (generally, they're very responsive), and I tend to take the "I'm trying to get insight into the objection item, and how can we help" tone, and usually, I find a willing partner on the other end of the phone.  10-12 weeks is a while, usually, its running 4-6 weeks for the last few builds we've done. 

I asked for proof (receipts, itemized costs, etc.), but he hasn’t provided any satisfactory documentation. 2.

For example, if $100 buys a basket of goods today, in 10 years, with a 5% average inflation rate, you'll need $162 to buy the same items.

I could likely see many things from the TCJA being made permanent, mostly procedural items like the higher standard deduction and child tax credit (Plus eliminating exemptions).

Depending how long your LTR was in there, you might need to fix or update a few items. 

If the property is making money - and I mean really generating good cash flow - then those taxes are just another line item in your budget.

I have been battling with the credit bureaus for 15 years between 2 divorces, and multiple incidents of identity theft (the untold effect of military service).

Now, I typically only use them to skim stats on reviews and the more basic items. 

I'm looking specifically for folks with experience in cities where military and veterans are densly populated.

Some items to touch on while you talk to prior investors:How has the overall experience been?
