I am in the research stage of investing in Snohomish Co. and am in the process of putting together my team and contractors are high on the list.  

It sounds like you only have 8 financed properties (or maybe less, if one of those properties has more than one loan on it) at this point.  

Financing sounds important, but I think a more important question is, what kind of tenants do you expect want to rent on the same block as a boarded up townhouse?

If you opt to stage the apartment hang a few black and white prints and add a pop of color.I guess just choose something that looks good with the flooring and the lighting in the room and stay away from crazy colors.

Sounds like a conflict of interest.

A follow up to the second question, I was thinking blank envelopes but it sounds like you are branding your envelopes with some form of print and then using a different source to actually label them with individual lead information prior to mailing.  

Sounds like I'm a little late for your original post, but I'd be happy to help in any way I can.

It sounds from your comment, "originally the lots were sold as tract lots", that it may be a sub division as a PUD will most likely have been built in unison with all the homes being close to the same age and from the same manufacturer/s.

Sounds terrible and encouraging at the same time.  

Just found out that the maximum allowable Rent is 3.7% In BC does that sound About right?
