I'll be going to Ace Hardware, Sherwin-Williams, Lowes and a local paint store since they are all in close vicinity of each other, and it doesn't hurt to get more then a few opinions.

'Slow your Roll" as you are a family man that needs to make sure whatever direction you go in comes up aces.

A couple of days ago I bought some "soft white" LED bulbs from ACE and they were ~ $6 each; then later i went to home Depot and saw "soft white" LED bulbs (equivalent to 40W and 60W incandescent) for under $2 - bought those and am going to return to ACE the $6 bulbs ...At $2 a bulb, the LED bulbs start to make more sense in rentals  IMO :)

You can paint the ceilings with Zinser Mildew-proof bath paint available at Ace Hardware....awesome product.If you buy a vacant home or foreclosure that has been closed up for more than a month...it's a great idea to wipe everything down with Microban which will kill mold on contact.  

Geez Jay, it is like having an Ace in the hole with your sage advice.

For example a 9% may be difficult or impossible to find in Los Angeles, but commonplace in Ventura or Riverside counties.  

They will also lend their expertise and knowledge to the company's overall vision, be responsible for client satisfaction and work hand in hand with the team as their product develops and grows.This is a salaried position ($90k - $110k, depending on experience) with benefits and is based in the Calabasas area of LA/Ventura County.
