Think about the impact on businesses of the fires and earth quakes in California or the hurricanes on the east coast.

wise choice it is looks like a duck quakes like a duck its a duck LOL.. worse situation I have ever seen investors put in.

I was hoping painting it would help it stand out a bit to a potential buyer.I would consider shutters, trim, columns, wrought iron, or a gable covering the porch prior to painting the brick...any architectural change could differentiate the property...how much will it cost to paint vs. adding a gabled porch or railings?

@Lorenzo Clark Yeah, that 7.5 quake was huge.
