Their commercials seem higher quality than the no on prop 33 commercials (who have similar budgets but from much more sources).Hopefully voters educate on this and strike down this proposition for the third time. 

However, by placing money in a property that I would like to have in order to increase my quality of life, that can also produce some cash flow instead of being a liability that requires money every month, I can increase my quality of life without increasing my monthly liabilities.  

They have a good selection of quality rugs for reasonable prices.

Quite prudent to stay away from such lack of quality in regards to REI agents.

@Rae Chris Ann Arbor is pretty expensive, so difficult to find cashflowing rentals.You may want to look in Ypsilanti - if you want to stay in your area.Otherwise, Metro Detroit offers a LOT of options.Read our copy & paste below for some helpful info:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

If the property sold today, after 1% cost of sale there's only $2.5 million in cash coming from that sale and that's assuming that there's no exit fee on the loan and no outstanding payables. 

If the Transunion report verifies everything, and they meet my other criteria (credit scores, proof of income, background and eviction checks...) then we are good.In my 15+ years at this, I have found a very strong correlation of credit score and tenant quality.

The licensed versions sold at big box stores are not the same quality and break down quickly and rarely have replacement parts.

You cannot have a contract that simply states "install high-quality countertops" without specifying the quantity, location, type, or style.

"I'm willing to cancel the eviction so it doesn't reflect on your record if you vacate on x day and pay x toward your outstanding balance"Most tenants are unaware of the long-term consequences when they have an eviction on their record.
