We are undecided on whether to put down asphalt or gravel to help increase value to our home & property.  If we would get our money back when we sell next year.  We would like some insights on this issue.  Thanks

My offer has been accepted but I'm still debating whether to take it. 

My goal is to buy a single-family home in the near future and rent it out.After debating between a few cities, I think I have settled on Jacksonville.

Curious to hear responses on this, as it is a question I am debating too, before beginning to invest in the Columbus area.A nice rule of thumb I heard is that worse areas tend to have better cash flow potential but lower appreciation potential. 

Now I'm debating whether to paint over it with a white epoxy floor paint or put engineered hardwood over the top.  

That's the main reason why I keep debating if I should keep renting here and invest in Arizona.

I debate this question- buy investment properties or a house for yourself- in this article-https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2014/01/1...Obviously I'm of the stance of buying the investment properties.

Good luck on the move  That can be debated...

We can also understand a div stock will not need a roof or have any ongoing turnover costs, vacancies, evictions, vandalism, code violations, insurance claims, sewer lines, landscaping blah, blah blah.Fortunately we can compare 5 years div stocks to 5 years random sfr returns and your friends blog conclusions are not debatable.

Hi Taye,The tenants pay for the gas and electric.Yes I have heard quite a lot of debate on these however after speaking with a few contractors and consulting some websites for advice it seems that due to being such a small place and having only a couple of people the demand is quite low therefore it would be efficient to get one.Thanks
