As a little ice breaker: what's your favorite part of real estate investing and/or the deal you're most proud of?

I am currently a professional basketball player who has played on the European circuit for the past 6 years.

It's literally changing out a circuit breaker and installing $15 outlets in the wet areas.  

Logan Sq has a good side and a rough side.Being in the boundary of a great neighborhood school is great for a property but there is also the possiblility of getting into a magnet or charter school or going to private so it is often not a deal breaker if the neighborhood school is poor.

At $500/yr it definitely could be a deal breaker on a marginal performer, or it could be trivial on a true winner.

Based on densities of eight units breakers this will increase the cost of each single-family home by a minimum of $50,000 per unit.

These might not be deal breakers, but every property will need maintenance at the very least so you want to be prepared going forward even when you have a textbook deal. 

National store closings, outsourcing tons of jobs, etc..ie, Circuit City closing all locations, Wang shutting down all operations and disappearing, etc..Just my 2 cents.https://www.youtube.com/watch?

Was it a circuit judge or a probate judge?

A new Jefferson County circuit court decision says all state inventory properties more than 6 years old are voidable by taxpayer, but I don't expect that decision to gain any traction with other courts.
