The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird waits in the egg; and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs.

I've been in discussions with an owner of a Mixed Use Commercial Unit (3 small storefronts, 2 apartments upstairs) in White Oak, PA. 

The point is if no one knows what your goals or plans are how would they know if its a good deal.A property in the heights or Oak Forest would never compare in these numbers but that is a speculation play.

Have an inspector come in and show you wants need to be done in order to pass (no chipping paint inside, outside addressed properly).

Not sure if this is related to the actual credit cards or the card reader/network, but it would be nice to see the processing time of the chip transaction improved.

It looks like the possibility for fully covering my mortgage isn't there, however, I could possibly keep my monthly housing cost to $500-600 which is still quite a bit lower than what it is now.To meet that $500-600 a month cost goal it seems I have two options, the areas of South Sacramento just south of downtown, which seems to be mainly Oak Park, and some areas north of downtown, which I think is considered "Old North Sacramento".

You can do this once every two years.So one option would be to sell that property tax free and get those chips off the table.  

We also have meetups in Long Beach, Thousand Oaks, and somewhere else in the valley.

Will you guys be attending the meeting tonight in thousand oaks?
