I would like to install all wood cabinets as this house will hopefully sell in the low $200K's after renovation. 

If it were the off season and I was having trouble renting I may consider it again but overall I don't think it is worth the extra vacancy but if you are doing MTR it is definitely worth making the right connections. 

I specialize in getting foreign investors started in Dubai and work with seasoned local companies who handle everything from start to finish.

It has all been a learning experience and I feel seasoned enough in my knowledge to know a deal when i see it. 

We make the design but we let our landscapers choose the actual types of plants based on season and cost. 

I have just purchased a property at the Jersey Shore that will be used exclusively for short-term rentals through the summer season. 

This also helps me to forecast seasonality on my properties.

REI wise-- I don't know if it's seasonality, rates, or what, but I'm noticing more DOM than ever in most of my markets, inventory trending up, and some savvy real estate agents getting in front of the price action.

Watch how you spend. you'll treat holiday season after October and your summer activity post April very differently. 

Can you provide some links to threads where seasoned investors are negative about notes?
