Ok, I guess I should probably talk more in depth about it with my lender.Thanks

I know I learn something every day on the subject and I have been learning for decades.. you really need to understand the laws in depth for this game.

My opinion is that investing money in a highly regulated field with severe penalties for non compliance without a significant, in-depth knowledge of such is a high risk and ill advised venture.  

To get an edge and find a true deal you're going to have to put some sweat-equity into researching homes more in depth and run your own numbers/analysis.

A wider angle can provide a better depth perception.

(And also I went in depth on this for a month doing it myself - you'd never think it but the local Kroger chain is for the most part less expensive on MOST things we order vs Sam's and Wal Mart - I was literally breaking everything down to the ounce - and also factoring in time it would take for staff to make it to a Wal Mart and pick up groceries and the overall headache of dealing with Wal Mart staff - anyways if you get off brands if you have a major grocery chain I'd think you'll find they are more cost effective)  (PS - I also spent a lot of time talking about food and supplies as I think most would find this is probably the most expensive monthly line item expense after staffing)One thing I haven't tackled yet is changing our chemical supplier and firing ecolab - it's a lower hanging fruit of probably saving 200-500 a month depending on who I go with - not insignificant but there's other bigger fish to fry for now but I'll get them out soon.Anyways the biggest struggles if you want to be owner of RE and business is STAFFING - that will be the biggest struggle - we are doing better but not where I want to be yet. 

I've been reading several websites and blogs but I'd like more depth.

There is enough depth in at least one section to more than cover a submersible pump, which can be used to feed a waterfall, or can simply bubble, to keep water movement.

Bill, From a first glance it looks like a go, however...we always go much more in depth with the number crunching.
