My realtor has been great and even called me out that I might be getting analysis paralysis haha I will continue looking and loosen up my criteria so it’s still a win but maybe not a grand slam :)

So eventually, these pipes shaking can loosen up the pipe solder fittings over time.

When I have removed staples I used the screwdriver not to leverage the staple, but more to just loosen it so the top of the staple pokes up a bit - to do so push the screwdriver under the staple keeping it parallel to the floor so you dont gouge -if needed swing the screwdriver back and forth a bit, but not up and down you just want to get the head up high enough to grap with pliers :)  (should of said this in first post!

This loosens up some money for the house, or next move. 

Once I loosened my criteria a little, found the right realtor, and made that criteria clear to him... it took 2 weeks to have an offer accepted.

Seems extremely tricky even with the loosening restrictions, but I do love the idea of an in-law suite above the garage.

during the "boom" times but COVID has loosened everything up and now 5% can be had in Manhattan, 6%-7% in Brooklyn and even 8% in the Bronx.

Hopefully once COVID restrictions have loosened we can meet at one of the various meet ups @John Whitfield
