Now I’m back on my feet after being milked dry financially over the years and I’m learning to do this the right way.

They did not tell me till after 3 days the door was locked and my recommendation was to call a locksmith-  I was very clear on the keys that were given and that door had none.2nd- The apartment floods- I was not notified till after 24 hours-  It took about 1.5 months from drying to demolition to reinstalling the whole kitchen.  

If you are really worried or if it is really ugly, use TSP to wash down the sheen (let it overnight to dry fully) so tomorrow morning should be good, this washes the sheen off, and you probably need to primer and coat it 2 more times.

I have enough cash to get the cabin foundation done and probably the structure "dried in".

Only have 2 more months of seed capital before I'm dry so need something good.

Make sure the basement is dry!

It holds tanning salon, a hair salon, a marketing office, and a gym.

I do realize that this is hindsite and maybe splitting hairs because Houston worked great for you.  

It is not an easy job, it is not a fun job (at times), you will get stabbed in the back and you will pull your hair out at times. 

I will just have to make sure that they are not squeezing the place dry and ensure repairs/capital improvements are being taken care of properly.
