See if there are metal clips nailed into both. 

@Jon Schwartz hit the nail on the head...househack using FHA, supersize it by turning that househack garage into an ADU later on, drop MI...buy a step up property and repeat

would you say the same principles apply for the smaller investor looking for their 500k to 2 mil deal that might be more realistic with the majority of BP members.. with your very large deals  making an assumption    but do the reits look at smaller returns given the velocity and size.most private investors really are looking to nail those deals that have the highest returns possible/ and a lot of times un knowledgeable or prepared for the risk/ reward  scenario. 

Upside fantastic program downside is when tragedy unexpectedly strikes and you need time, you have a better chance of nailing jello to a tree then to receive a call back from there legal department.Should you have any interest in discussing this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at Respectfully,Wehrle Ct, Long Beach Ca 90804

*yes* we should have processes/procedures to ensure a consistent renter experience and protect ourselves legally, but i just don't believe in throwing the book at people every chance we get.finding the balance here is just something that comes with time, and i'm sure my thoughts on it will keep evolving as my RE journey goes on. but for now, i'm very thankful to have a PM company for our out-of-state property that is nailing this balancing act on our behalf.

@Mike Dymski nailed it though - invest in the people first, and the deal second. 

. ; 5) Pets may leave gauges in the flooring from nails; 6) Compared to LVP they do not add any more $ in value LVP is nice because: 1) It's less expensive and easy to install; 2) Is water proof and scratch proof; 3) The thicker wear layered planks i.e. 12mil or higher will last longer than hardwoods unscathed; 4) its pet proof; 5) In the off chance that many years down the line there is wear on the floor, you can replace them still for cheaper than you can refinish hardwood flooring, and its a new floor again.
