Not in a red crime area according to CrimeGrade.orgAm I just looking for the needle in the haystack that everyone else is looking for/grabbing?

So it’s not worth it for folks to spend a lot of time looking for that needle in the haystack.

But if you do find that needle in a haystack you can certainly get a conventional loan. 

You might find a needle in a haystack elsewhere, but Elgin especially will give you the most at bats. 

I suppose finding a trim carpenter as a buyer (who would appreciate all of the oak) might be like finding a needle in a haystack ha. 

I have been trying to look at different lakes, but there are so many and they all seem so similar that it may as well be finding a needle in a haystack.

Any tips or recommendations on how to find this needle in the haystack out here?
