Certain businesses I can't own due to moral complications etc. and how I feel about it.The more I think about it the more I am leaning to a no on businesses.If I keep income streams to three then I think I might have the life I want:- Closing transactions with my commercial clients- Buying commercial property directly for myself- Starting a fund or syndicate to go after retail turnaround properties.Even when you make a lot of money it's all about the residuals so they come in no matter if you are working or not.

@Abdullah DimionI'm pretty bearish (pessimistic) on Chicago; I'll keep my eye on it but until the overall crime, and both real and perceived corruption and moral hazard stuff gets worked out, there's no end in sight for their $5-6k / yr in taxes for one of those cheaper homes you're referencing.

@Mario Morales You definitely can although MOST blanket loans will require a minimum of 5 doors, not allow you to combine properties for the sole purpose of meeting a loan minimum, and honestly, with only 3, a blanket will very rarely make sense when you consider the rules regarding partial payoffs, prepays, etc. 9/10 times doing 3 individually will make more sense right now. 

@Jesus Morales not very difficult at all. 

Took me a bit longer than 10 minutes p/lock but the moral of the story is you all encouraged me and I accomplished my DiY tasks and saved myself some money.

To boost energy efficiency efforts within the units regardless of who’s paying the bill, some programs will incentivize “in-unit” upgrades almost 100% in order to address in-unit consumption as well as total building consumption.It would be great if owners and investors could see past the low hanging fruit; low-flow aerators, and CFLs and see the additional benefits of “greening” their buildings on a larger scale.
