The goal is to find a good one and move everything under one roof... but yes, nothing wrong with testing the waters with a new company... even in the same city.

I do agree that my priorities were wrong but at this point that is water under the bridge.

Hi Simon,If you have a boiler, you might want to understand its parts and how it works--in detail.There are steam boilers, and water boilers, water tube systems, and fire tube systems.They all have different parts that can fail, and some have redundant parts to keep heat on if there is a failure and some don't.If you know your stuff about this big ticket item, you will be less likely to be at the mercy of an overcharging repairman.Just my 2 cents.Good Luck!

Hola, I recently submitted a buy proposal with my realtor for 1.5 acre water’s edge Smith River (NW CA) property which the owner is currently reviewing and is likely to accept.

It had enough water rights to be able to have our own water treatment plant as well which will be a nice income generator for many years to come.

Eliminating that expense will increase your value by ~$200k, assuming the 8% Cap Rate is correct.Anyway to bill back water/sewer through RUBS?

I have a good network based off of in-person relationships and seeing the work they do for our clients and can add to your list of resources to get to know.2- I have a french bulldog too, so that's cool.

Right now were working out sewer and water access and other logistical stuff.

Add up 3 months of mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, utilities, property maintenance, $2,000 in repairs, and if you're using a property manager... they're probably charging you something for tenant placement.This really blows the "infinite rate of return" out of the water when you have to keep $5k liquid for reserves at all time.

I live in Florida so I am well versed in the notification to keep the deposit rules for Florida that is  Regardless of her willingness to entertain showings your biggest issue is lack of access to your unit   What if there is a broken pipe and gushing water out and she’s unable to leave work   You need to always have access   If you have a PM or not always have a set of keys   I don’t allow that to happen and immediately rekey   I’ve actually added an addendum in the lease for that very reason
