Hi @Joel S.! Well

Lowes has a 5 gallon latex maintenance paint for $30 that does ok but the kids drawing on the walls are going to bleed through after a few coats so you're better offer paying over $100 for 5 gallons of latex paint so you can still have to go over it twice.

More commonly, there are little things: Let's say a gate sags and doesn't close well, or a front door swells from wet weather and fits too tightly in the frame.

I wouldn't necessarily take legal advice from her, but I guess I'll have to see what the story is and if/how much that storyline can bleed over into effecting her ability to be a trustworthy agent. 

Well my friend, sounds like you just got a lesson from the investing school of hard knocks, tuition $1,700 ... still far less expensive and more valuable than any guru course and could be far worse :) I agree with other posters that you should drop it ... you can't bleed a turnip.

I  surprised any landlord is supporting buying a house on s well.

Thanks for the infoThomas S. well I have $16k in non morgage debt that i will be done with in a few months

We have an agreed price and scope but there are no time penalties and time is bleeding right now.

speaking of Acorn, this will make you swell with American pride: http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/03/18/rtr.homedefenders/index.html

Here's my situation:-I'm currently spending $1700 in rent on a stupid luxury I can't afford (living alone in Hollywood)-All along I've been asking questions about buying an investment property while ignoring the fact that I don't have a home of my own yet and I'm bleeding money I'll never get back by renting-So first thing's first, I need to buy a home.
