That's why McDonald's tastes so good, that it can kill you.

All of this and many other factors need to be considered running a restaurant.The biggest issue a one off restaurant faces is food quality and pricing.Small places can't order in massive quantities so do not have long term food contracts locked in at a set price like chains do.Instead food cost fluctuations can hurt a small restaurant plus the quality you get from a supplier might be good one week but the next a new company came in to the food supplier and gave them a cheaper deal to use their product and try it out.The new product may be better,the same, or worse.The problem is you pay the same price and charge the customer the same price as before but it might not taste as good.I don't know how you will buy this restaurant as you have no experience as an owner.You can't just open a restaurant and expect people to come in.A few will but not enough to make a great business.You have to pound the ground and press palms and get the product with free samples into people's mouths.This will generate buzz for your restaurant and create customers with a relationship.Customers are habit creatures.Get them a great experience,great food,decent price and you will get repeat business.

Underfunded reserves, special assessments, design review boards and landscape "police" have all left a bad taste in my mouth with various homes and condos I have owned.In 2011, I was working on a town home in a coastal community of San Diego county and butting heads with the HOA president.

This isn't a success story yet, but could be in a couple of months.I have an opportunity to pick up a good deal from an investor associate who is looking to get out of a house that has left a bad taste in his mouth.

Now she launches into a rambling tirade (same tone as that nasty voicemail landlord played me) and says that this whole situation has left a bad taste in her mouth and that my lack of professionalism (?)

Don't let one property give you a bad taste.

Once the day comes, Side 2 will be tastefully renovated, exterior painted, and lovingly put on the market for a 1031 exchange into a fourplex out of state.

@Matt R.Here is a little taste.  10384 Alphonse, unit E2 3br/2bath, 92071.

Hardly any money out of pocket and it would have sold in a week or two.I could have stuck to my guns and kept the price as 5k, but for one, the park had a nicer 3 bedroom unit for sale for 3k-3500 and two, if I stuck to my guns at 5k and held on to the property 2 months longer to do so, I would have been out of pocket another $750 and all of a sudden, I'm right back where I started around the 4k mark but by then all the excitement would be gone and I'd be left with a bad taste in my mouth after 2-3months of holding time.
