There is certainly no problem planting an FSBO sign in the front yard and listing it on Craigslist.

I do agree with your take on the dishwasher, place to grow plants, and fire pit.

Just recently self-installed a 30k mini-split system in another property, but that was a STR with a former pellet stove that might as well have been a nuclear plant power plant based on how guests responded to it when they walked in. 

You have to learn how to think like a Farmer...you have to plant and raise or "invest" in things that produce Daily Cash Flow in order to pay the bills every 30 Days.

@Pat Kumparatana   I think 95% of the guru type companies have their roots firmly planted in MLM.. and use a variation of it..

The nuclear plant has a new business in it, that’s a big hit in town!

Micheal Plante the lord really really really loves you.

There were a lot of bushes, trees, poison Ivy plants etc. growing making that area like a forest inaccessible.

The next crash is always, always, always 12-18 months away, due to some very convincing indicators:2013:Denver Post: “Buyers Caught in a Price Squeeze”CNBC: “Housing Market Already Shows Signs of a New Bubble”2014:New York Times: “The Bubble Is Back”Fortune: “Why the Housing Recovery is over, in four charts”2015:CNBC (Again): “Housing today: A ‘bubble larger than 2006’”National Review: “We’ve inflated another bubble; count on the crash.”2016:CNN: “Housing bubble fears have returned”MarketWatch: “The Seeds of the Next Housing Crisis have already been planted”2017:Forbes: “58% of Homeowners Think The Housing Market is Set for a Correction”USA Today: “Hot Housing Market Could Cool in 2018”2018:Bloomberg: “This Rare Bear Who Called the Crash Warns Housing is Too Hot Again”Maybe this time it really is... and maybe there is a massive price drop that will hammer everyone. 

Forget the stock market, I'd buy investment properties near a Toilet Paper/Paper Towel manufacturing plant, watch it spike in value for the short term & then sell before it dies down :)
