Let it dry, hit it with some sand paper and then I did an Orange Peel texture to hid any other defects.

VTSAX for the commanding win, this time.It's as "apples to oranges" as it gets!

I’m actually going to see a deal tomorrow in the desert, it’s only about an hr and a half from Orange County.....looks like there are opportunity for decent cashflow out there.

I have a buddy who is a chem engineer who switched to a RE broker and makes 400-500k in orange county but hes a straight hustler and works like 55-60 hrs a week.The cool thing with being an agent is you get to see deals every day, you get to walk properties, meet with inspectors, appraisers, and be as close as a deal as an owner with out having the risk of owning or purchasing.The same can be said with a lender however we dont typically go to the site as often.Pros and cons to each.Best of luck,

Obviously that's not what you are talking about it's apples and oranges.

All HUD open properties in Orange county NY (county containing Newburgh NY) are IE.

I'm curious if any investors have a high cash flowing property in a low appreciation area that they purchased +/- 30 years ago as well as a no/low cash flowing property that they purchased in a high appreciating market such as Coastal CA, Orange County, San Francisco, Coronado Island San Diego, Lower Manhattan, Miami beach, etc., that was purchased around the same time. 

Unfinished, spilled all over, bright orange, woo-hoo!

A lot of cities in Orange County have outright banned STRs, and ones that haven't seem to have wait lists to get approved.Buying an STR is something I'd really like to do.

I know...apples to oranges, but just understand that alot of contractors incorporate deposits in their business model.
