I have entertained the idea of getting my real estate license (so we could be saving money on our buys and sells) as well as helping take care of the odds and ends errands that eats into my husband’s time (running to stores for materials, fixtures, etc.).

First i'd be checking if they would entertain selling or if they are seeking other solutions to feel out the situation.

Define the word, "soon", as you are using it in your title...and, rumors are great for entertainment. 

I heard this story last year and thought it entertaining but a bit concerning: https://www.npr.org/2017/06/23/533791342/carrie-poppy-can-science-reveal-the-truth-behind-ghost-stories

Garages are usually for storing vehicles and other stuff, not entertaining your boss.

The other guys will not even entertain the idea "sorry, can't do that" - CLICK.Normally I would make sure I get receipts for all repairs, but after the adjuster told me I am under the deductable and will not be reimbursed a penny, I didn't worry about crossing all the tees and dotting all the "I"s. 

Close to parks, restaurants and entertainment too!

I currently own one unit in Florida and used to be a mortgage broker before I moved to California to work in the entertainment business..For the last decade I've given myself various financial "challenges" to help keep me focused.

The challenge will be finding a lender to entertain this deal. 

The PNT who is in Seattle cannot meet in person to see the place and wants to discuss more information over the phone.My main question for the BP community is how do I go about entertaining both of these tenants interests in the new place?
