Just like in your book, you are definitely milking the 2/5 year rule of not having to pay capital gains of the sale of your personal residence, very nice!

An initial idea that I had was to lay a thin skim coat to help increase the pitch away from the house but the previous home owner actually tried that and it did not work due to the slab being poured too high.

And tracks inflation.... milk goes up - you can bet your parking tab will as well...... and best of all, you can't escape without paying your bill - unless you're trying to get rid of your car!

I am currently trying to milk two different "Fortune Telling" strategies to spot early opportunities.

But perhaps they were overlooked.The LLC that owns it and that is renting but (apparently) not paying the mortgage is "rent skimming". 

- Budget- Permits- Foundation- Demolition- Framing - Windows and Doors- Roofing- Exterior Siding- HVAC Rough-In- Plumbing Rough-In- Electrical Rough-In- Structured Wiring Rough-In (Internet, Ethernet, Coax, Speakers, etc)- Insulation Batts- Framing Punchout (misc framing needed to account previous trades cutting holes and maybe needing soffits due to hvac or plumbing)- Drywall (Hang, Tape, Skim, and Sand)- Insulation Blow-In (if needed)- Trim (Base, Case, Crown, Kitchen Cabinets, Vanities, Etc)- 1st Paint- Granite Templating- Ceramics / Tile- Vinyl- HVAC Final- Electrical Final- Hardwood Flooring- Plumbing Final- Structured Wiring Final- Install Granite- First Clean (clean up all bathrooms and kitchens)- Drywall Point Up (takes care of all over cuts or mis-cuts from above contractors)- 2nd Paint- Carpet- Drywall Blue Tape- Paint Touch Up- Final Clean (remove hardwood floor coverings and plastic on the carpets)- Punchout (your guy to do the grout caulking, door adjusting, fine tuning)

I wouldn't just give out money unless my lease states I would refund the current months' rent--- you don't want to give out money and tenant think they can milk you for more money or try to use you giving them money as you admitting liability to get more money out of you/insurance.As for what to do, sorry I can't be of much use there.

To match the other walls in the room, I would suggest skim coating the cement wall with drywall mud and then texturing.

While Im relatively new in actually engaging in this community of people online, I have been reading posts and skimming forum topics awhile now, and love the togetherness of it!!

Margins are tight and milk doesn't pay to produce, I know a lot of farms maxing out their financing as well as investors dumping money into the larger dairys to keep them afloat.
