Not an impossible task, but it winds up being ALOT of work for a home that is still likely to have a number of deficiencies compared to a newly built, energy efficient home.Now the question I've had a lot of people ask me is: I just bought a concrete block home.

Are there other notes you feel perform better than these?

I only have one investment property in CA and that's been the most stable and best performing asset out of all of them@Wale Lawal Once this flip gone wrong is taken care of my portfolio will actually be pretty stable.
