Although, I've been beating myself up a bit with my latest round of projects and then about a week ago I took a different viewpoint and considering that I had three big projects, basically all total rehabs including the one that needed the rebuilt basement, plus a few factors that were truly out of the ordinary-not unexpected, that ALWAYS happens, but a few real oddball items here, I guess for each one it didn't take me that long and of course in ANY business, NO ONE is ever 100%, there's always room to improve for anyone.

There are of course notable exceptions, but everyone I know that got a "good deal" bought these places before 2017 at the latest.

I'm usually wary of people saying "this time it's different" especially when its my brother's friend of a friend asking for an investment in his latest schtick... :)but I do think you are hitting on some important points about the changes in rules and demographics of the current environment.  

Anybody knows the latest update for the above-mentioned project?

With this letter and envelope, I've gotten a 10% response in my latest campaign. 

The latest advanced tax book is very good.As far as accounting;   maybe if you out sourced taxes would the time spent punching numbers into QB make sense.

The latest promise is that:- This week he'll have the property mowed, secured, and he'll quickly get the rehab done. - He'll send pics. - He'll also take care of the court case by visiting the courthouse in the next week or so.- He'll pay the overdue sanitary fee lien from the city of Atlanta that were bought by a New Jersey lien company in the amount of $546.
