Google what it costs (labor rate) to install flooring and then look at cost-per-sq-ft materials at Home Depot.

I found this very useful on the forums that @Christopher Phillips a Real Estate Agent from Garden City, New Yorksaid "1031 can't be used for personal property.

I love the Westland / Redford /wayne /garden city area.

Plus you can listen to podcasts anywhere, whether you're driving to work, running, working in the garden, walking down the street, etc.

Or you can just buy commercial grade mold killer at Home Depot and DIY.However, no matter if you hire a service or if you do it - the mold will likly come back if you don't correct the condition it got it to flurrish.

Roof should be fine but it is a simple garden home a-frame house. 1,300 square feet.

Home Depot, Menards, and Lowes all sells very inexpensive plastic miniblinds.

They are gardeners, so they have all the tools.
