Investors want something to brag about and show off at their next REIA or other networking events to be noticed and be a nice ice breaker for conversation.

. :)Putting in an offer on another one tomorrow too (5 blocks from interstate).Additionally, If you are up for the challenge, I think my girls (2 & 5) might be able to take you down in a lip sync battle, at least on Ice Ice Baby and songs from Lion King. :) Bring it!

I try to not leave anything, because when they leave they better not leave anything, not even a hanger.We do quarterly inspections and change the furnace filter during that inspection.I like the idea of the shovel, ice melt, plunger, but my experience has been if you leave them a few gifts they will leave you a few more.

At the time they targeted Asian massage parlors, cigarette sellers, night clubs that had customers deemed criminal (read: minorities), medical marijuana clinics and (post 2008) bank owned properties that had been foreclosed. 

What about in a snow or ice situation.

@Jon Klaus   yes Jon figured that banking stuff out a few years ago.. but of course its not all peachs and cream  :)  but when it works its pretty nice. and an option to owning RE.Building as you do ( and I do ) of course can even be substantially better with leverage with 100% plus returns COC common place ... but lots of risk.

If a seller has no motivation you'll be selling ice to an eskimo.

But when I do that the rates to the borrower go up.. and I really just did not want to hassle with all the NMLS stuff as I am here in Oregon .. so I put my license back on Ice..  

Just ice around a commercial property.

I actually referred 2 ICE cases to him on fraudulent use of ID's on rental applications.
