Now go paint all the doors red per the Scottish tradition.

It would stink to live on the East Coast, get a consulting job on the West Coast and have a 6-hour plane ride every time you had to go into the office.Texas is seeing some pretty strong growth, but it's also immense, so there are places you can go, still be near an airport, and invest for cash flow if that's your thing.The problem with the center of the country is that it runs very red politically.

I believe I've thought through all the big questions, and have calculated the various scenarios, but wanted to run the basics of the project by the forum to see if those of you with more experience see any red flags that I haven't:--I am under contingent contract to purchase the home for $485,000.

Some red hair, and you would be twins.

It ruins the story when you're like, "Hey, wasn't that character wearing a red shirt in the last scene?"  

Still about impossible to ask a seller to come out of pocket to sell their place.A lot of folks have turned skinny rocks for years seeking that elusive no money deal.

The red flags are already out.

I like both of these guys, however drugs at work... more than a huge red flag.

We signed our first lease this year on September 14th, 2016 for move-in date August 19th, 2017. 2) As soon as you can get lined up with tenants on the school schedule you'll be rocking!

So if the carpet is in good shape, I am not sure that I would replace it.There are some things you can do with additional insulation between the floors and additional sheet rock, as well as some sound isolation measures (green glue, resilient channels, etc), but those would require a decent amount of money and messy work in the downstairs unit.
