He told me about his paper about the role of fresh water as a driver for economical development and why he would choose to invest in Milwaukee over many of the other booming cities in the US, many of them in hot and dry climates. 

It should eventually dry out, but buyer wants stucco redone, to his satisfaction. 

The key reason a roof degrades is due to the sun dry rotting it.

Every single floor joist is rotted, including the sill plate.

In addition to Brandon's steps, let them know how long the deck needs to be clear of things/usage in order for it to dry properly.

Now don't get me wrong I am happy to fix the clogged or leaky faucet, replace the sewer line, paint, scrub, replace Windows that are rotted, but must say some things are beyond my budget and outside the realm of what I know how to do.

Trying to understand how it works and the differences and benefits of a Dry double close and regular double close.

So my tenant is complaining about a dishwasher not drying and a clothes washer not spinning.

Outside needs a bit more, the paint is peeling all around on the trim below the roofline, and you can tell the it's about time for replacing it all, and one corner definitely shows some potential for some rot/mold/water issues, but I don't think it's really something major, but that's at least a decent sized project.

That way we always have cash and if the market goes south or renters dry up (not likely) we aren't over leveraged and could sell and pay off the mortgage.
