It sounds like we are at similar stages.

And bringing extra money to do some staging would make some major difference on selling the house and I'm not prepared on that part also.

Although it may seem elementary please explain.. someone... please î„

Yes, I bought at the range and then once more at around 1400...I'm probably showing my financial ignorance here, but for it to reach a mania stage doesn't the average "man on the street" need to be able to invest in it?

We need to take our current gross annual budget and reduce it by 10%-20% or so - start with a blank slate - and reorganize and priortize where to spend that newly allotted budget amount.I think Rich is right and we are amidst a bit of a perfect storm, but I wouldn't call it perfect storm number 2. rather I would liken it to having travelled 2+ years through the storm, we've now reached the eye of the storm, and likely won't make it out the other side on stable ground for another 2+ years.Truth be told, we can remain dominant on the world stage but will no longer be the lone "superpower" we once were.

as far as elementary/middle/high schools are concerned, I wouldn't even know where to start.

The psychological stages a bidder go through are so transparent sometimes and is truly amusing to watch!

I always look at what is in it for me so if it meets my numbers expectations, I will be willing to pay you a good part of the "excess" profits.Are you planning to be involved in the project during the rehab and selling stage?

I feel this will give you value of unmeasurable amounts but its so elementary that I feel to blame that I have not implemented it before.

At least at the beginning stages of your business?
