On a side not I have read a few times that the zestimate and what not on these websites are not entirely accurate.

that way I know exactly what not to do and what is in demand.

In the latter (West Van), I'd say you have nothing to worry about walking neighborhoods alone; in the former (that part of East Van), I'd suggest anyone (especially new to the area) would want a second pair of eyes to "watch their back".Same likely applies to lots of different areas of "Detroit"; some are bound to be great/safe/beautiful whilst others will be more "war zone" style - can't lump it all in to the same bucket :)As far as the airport itself though, can't imagine why it'd be a problem (I can't imagine any major US airport being a problem given how much law enforcement presence there is at all of them) - having flown there myself, it's plenty safe and fine with just the usual airport stuff to watch out for (folks who aren't authorized to provide taxi services trying to solicit in terminal for example or what not else).

Before I moved in, my PM told me what needed to be replaced and whatnot via website.

Banks are open on the weekends, as are various places you can get money orders, however, real estate contracts generally have a place where you can commit to putting an EMD at the title or escrow company within X days, to account for weekends or holidays or what not.

The situation is pretty bad:- the city keeps issuing fine over fine for things like grass or "tire in the driveway" or what not like there's a cash pinada- she didn't have one tenant in the past 3 years, not even Sect 8 wants to rent there- paying taxes and insurance and what not. all current though.- it's not a drug zone but just a bad patch with unemployed peeps doing nothing productive so to speakShe wants out, really bad, ready to write off the loss just to stop losing more money every month.

As of right now I am signing on to IRS.gov and making estimated payments of 18% for each deal I've done. 2) As far as my direct marketing, business lunches, supplies, gas and whatnot I am keeping receipts for everything.

I do not think the 50% is supposed to include insurance and whatnot but I could be wrong. 2k falls short of being 2% total cost though.Do you guys think this is a bad idea??

If we move, which will be hundreds of miles away we would either buy an available house or rent for a year while we look and whatnot. 

Typical rent for single room is $500 and for families anywhere between $1100 and $1800 depending on rooms and bathrooms and whatnot.
