No property is worth 2 years of your life and, once he counter sues, all of your sanity.

What is not helpful is the assumption that some responders made that the root cause is the PM's communication style was not to my "liking".

who used this his entire life and build a net worth of over $1 billion by the 1980s starting with absolutely no capital!  

Oh yeah, that's the med-life. 

A reserve is unnecessary, but I still keep around $15,000 - $20,000 in my account.The point is, that you should sit down and assess your finances to determine what the worst-case scenario may look like, how much you would need to cover it without impacting your life, and whether you will need to build a reserve.

I've shifted from trying to economize in everything in life to seeing that oftentimes it's well worth it to pay for the full service experience, no nickel-and-diming.

I am ready to take that next step towards F.I.R.E and set my daughters up for life!

Still, I managed to lock it in for $145,000 by emphasizing how much TLC (and cash) it needed to bring it back to life.

My goal is to build a data-driven tool that provides actionable insights into which neighborhoods and property types are in the highest demand, based on metrics like:Time on market: How quickly rentals are being leased.Property characteristics: Bedrooms, bathrooms, size, and amenities.Pricing trends: Rental rates relative to market demand and property features.Visual quality: Leveraging property photos to analyze the style and condition of rentals that perform well.The tool will allow users to:Pinpoint areas with the fastest rental turnovers.Understand what types of properties (size, price range, features) rent the quickest.Gain deeper insights into property presentation and amenities that correlate with high demand.Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Needs all new cabintry, windows, doors, roof (has some life left), fixtures, fencing, some electrical and plumbing changes, and some framing/drywall due to termite damaged sill plate in areas.
