. -- local rules- no parking on lawns- no "for parts" cars that don't run and are being worked on- no indoor furniture outside, no outdoor storage or sheds- no gazebos, pools, fire pits, outdoor fireplaces, trampolines- where trash bins should be placed and when (my city is picky about this - fines)My lease is about 7 pages now.

Hi,I was wondering does any investor on here specialize in door knocking "notice of election and demands," late lists, or any other lists?

After all momma never promised you a rise garden.

It also is a build-able lot but is presently usable for parking/gardening/playing etc.  

Speaking of common areas, do you have costs in there for lawn maintenance and general garden upkeep?

Agents throw around terms like English Basement, In-Law Suite, Garden Unit, but the most fitting name is Illegal Unit. 2-Flats are zoned for occupancy of 2 units, and the basement is not a legal unit.

The home has an indoor pool which we stated in the lease agreement is not to be used in the Winter for various reasons. 

Currently living in Vero Beach, FL but willing to commute or move to Port St Lucie, Stuart, Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach, Boynton, Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale, or Miami.Thanks,Diego Murray

Jonathan Orr,if you have the investment money to take on big projects I would talk to the city of Garden Grove planning office about their numerous redevelopment opportunities on Harbor Blvd between Orangewood Ave and Garden Grove Blvd.They just built a massive resort there called Great Wolf Lodge and it desperately needs neighbors like new restaurants,shopping,and more hotels to fill up the space between it and Chapman Ave.They have everything you need plus tax incentives to make it worth investing in the new south end of the Disneyland resort area.

So lets be serious now... talking about being downtown, where the state put a one mile radius around the isolated communities where they are able to preserve the neighborhoods, does not represent what makes up most of the detroit experience of the hoods and ghettos. anywhere in the world has its good areas and its bad areas. but detroit has more bad areas than most.And although I brought up downtown as an example of where things are picking up, I am not trying to say that is the only area of the city that is not a warzone.Indian Village, Palmer Woods, Boston Edison are all amazing neighborhoods.John Berry, Sherwood Forest, University District and Rosedale Gardens are pretty damn decent.East English Village, West Village, Corktown and Mexican town are respectable places.Yes, there are more Brightmoors and Burbanks than good areas, but that does not mean the entire city is lost and that we should just wall it up and hope that Detroiters don't move into our suburban neighborhoods.
