After looking at so many properties that have been hit by copper thieves over the years, I have started to have this recurring fantasy about catching them in the act. 

And we have to make that profit to stay in business.But there are thieves out there, hopefully the old ladies have families that keep them from getting swindled.

An empty unit may become a target for vandals and thieves, cost you more in utilities and your insurance company may drop you if it sits empty too long.

You also have port of Sac.... both equal distance to clear lake. there are container brokers all over the US.. they run about 2k to buy used. just FYI.. its getting them building compliant that is the rub.this is my buddy Carl who I shared our airplane with companyhttp://www.relevantbuildings.com/    these are all approved in Oregon and he has set up a manufacturing facility.. first order of business is to build them for recreational buyers who want them for remote cabins and such.. remote cabins are very often target of local thieves and get gutted. 

And if that is what you are worried about I would say posting on CL would be just as dangerous...thieves know how to use the internet too.

I was a fool and bought a $15000 course which was worthless. Absolutely worthless I cant believe I believed all of the lies. I don't think any Guru can help they are just out to get your money. 

A boarded home indicates the worry of squatters and copper thieves. 

keep in mind most business lines of credit from a bank  TRUE unsecured LOC's are on one year revolvers and they can and are frequently called.. another tid bit is many times they have a 30 day resting period per year.. meaning you have to pay it off and rest it for 30 consecutive days.these are true unsecured LOC's from Banks.. also careful with the fake business loan lenders that say your all approved just send me a little money up front.. in almost all instances they are simply scammers crooks and thieves. 

Baltimore city is a government comprised of incompetent thieves

It might also be a safety hazard, since thieves often like to access through areas that are sheltered by brush or trees  because there is a lower risk of being spotted by neighbors.
