I spent some quality time with my Note Investing mentor at the IMN Conference a few weeks ago.Part of the discussion centered on the institutional non-performing notes being more difficult to source at low levels AND ...

I think the right mix of horizontal and vertical integration is often the 'answer' that makes sense. 

Depending on how bad is the foundation state (how many inches you have to correct), is very possible the sewer line will disconnect/break in the horizontal portions.

What's new:- new deck in back with master/main floor access- the hallway exiting to the deck is where the current full bathroom is- laundry closet sized for modern washer/dryers- coat closet with 2" more depth than required for coats (28")- I wanted a soaking tub in the master, but just isn't enough room- the shower in the master will have a long horizontal window near the top for sunlight, and will use a glass surround allowing light in.- The walk in closet entry could be bumped further into the master main floor area, but I think it's plenty big enough and prefer a luxurious open floor space for maneuvering in the master bath.

It is a modern horizontal fence made of Brazilian Tiger Wood.

And by the way, that deck:  I thought it was odd that he used horizontal slats instead of spindles. 

First off, there seem to be several horizontal cracks in the basement foundation - definitely get that looked at.

So just go with a larger square if you go that route.Another thought is to attach horizontal bars across all the verticals.  

Basement flooded, HW tank was floating & horizontal & the electric panel was about to short out.

Try to hang your signs going vertical and not horizontal.
