Past history, current practice, tax return treatment are all a part of the picture you paint. 

I had zero patients for those  idiots, any money they lose or whatever I think they deserve the worse customer service in the entire industry

In Calif, it is code to have the water heater strapped to a wall - - and yes, they take pictures and report the condition to ESCROW, not the city.

@Jurgen Gottschalk Looks like you have plenty of pictures, which is good.

@Dennis Weber  spread the word find me someone who is deserving and who has the ability to post pictures on BP and can write about it as well...

Looking to get started soon and learn as I go , my plan is to buy and hold and have my start plan drawn out.I have alerts on Zillow/Trulia/Realtor - I don't have access to the MLS and had talked to a real estate agent, but he does his own investment/business too so hasn't been as responsive so have talked to a few others.I looked up 128 Chestnut, is that your pictures of the rehab process?

I am looking for something I can put an address with a picture or two and some details.  

I'm an IT leader at a small company, I have infrastructure, custom development (.net), and BI/datawarehouse teams.  

Have phenomenal concepts that should make a major difference in the marketplace once implemented.For sellers, I offer outstanding tools ranging from premium placement on the public real estate portals like Zillow and Realtor.com as well as custom webpages and targeted direct marketing campaigns for their properties.For residential income property management my focus is on providing outstanding value and service to investors and tenants.

But either because it wasn't as much as feared, or that investors just liked having a defined picture of what to expect, I've found that investor interest in our area has improved since the summer troop strength announcements.
