I'm interested in developing passive income with a specific target market segment and locations.Currently hold 6 properties in different states that I will be selling in the next 60 days so that I can implement my strategy.Please contact me to expand your network if interested-Val Taylor

Definitely agree, I would add a level of distinction though. housing can rise, but the total COL for TX is still lower than CA.

But there are times that segment of the job requires it be done NOW or its too small to bring in a sub .

It has a very distinct sound.

If these are legal separate dwellings, with their own addresses. then the city should also be able to install two distinct water meters with two separate accounts.You can try to guess who used how much, but you will never be correct, and one of the tenants will always complain. 

Similarly, if the government wanted its agents to inspect rental units in between tenants while they are vacant (or the hypothetical weekend rental car when it's in the lot and not being rented by a consumer), I don't think anyone objecting would have a leg to stand on.I'm mostly thinking out loud here, my position/opinion being developed on the fly as I think about this and we go back and forth...EDIT: if any lawyers want to chime in on from whence the apparent different standards for business and personal stuff arises (assuming that distinction exists at all and I'm not hallucinating), I'd be most happy to read up on that. 

Here are some ideas and observations:Market Dynamics: Manhattan's distinct market dynamics and high property values are well-known.

The 400k+ segment probably was the surprise outperformer this year but seems like there's just a major supply issue at the sub-200k level.

@Hannad Qaisi-  AFH financing is  a special  segment of the marketplace  ....if you end up  buying an exisiting AFH - make sure you  have  a AFH lender  contacted and  ready to use  ....if you can  qualify for a  regular  home  purchase - you can  use a regular loan  ....and  then convert it as  local  guidelines allow a 1 story property is ideal

They'd much rather say, "I sold my home" a mindset that maintains their dignity--a subtle to nearly worthless distinction from a FICO/future qualifying POV but meaningful to some homeowners.I intended to post URLs to support what I said in my initial post but, apparently, as a new poster, I cannot post URLs until a couple of days has passed.
