Houses a few blocks further were zoned residential and it did apply.

I live down the block so I will probably do most of the leg work myself, how much should I ask for a down payment, how much over monthly rent, how many years?

It is located in a decent neighborhood and a great block!

The tube is propped up on cinder blocks.

here are the details.I just bought a house 3 streets away for $75k. i had to put only 6k in that house and rented it for $1,150.So, this new one is a SFR, asking price of 80k, which is overpriced when you take into account how many upgrades it needs....which are:Windows $6,500House Roof $4,800Waterproofing $3,000 (might not have to do it)Driveway repair $2,800Garage Roof $2,250Plumbing $1,500Furnace &AC $1,500Garage Door $1,350glass block basement windows$1,000Water heater $700Replaceelectrical riser$650Repair garage trim$575Garage Opener $350So, give or take, it would cost me around 25k (and my track record shows i go over my estimates :oops: ) in the next few yrs.

Even a six foot high concrete block fence is going to have minimal impact on the noise.

Galvanized can become blocked on the inside from the rust.

Matter of fact, the place is clean and just a couple of blocks away from down town touristy area.

Two house on the same block sold for 145000 two months ago.

I am seeing butcher-block formica!
