It snowed the night before.

Shout out to all the DMVers dealing with this large snow event.

Snow plow, taxes and insurance etc..

I love BP, but most people write in about their successes and not about what can go wrong very quickly.I started investing in Chicago because it's much cheaper than the New York market, but although property costs less I have a lot more expenses as far as plane tickets, time off from my day job, landscaping, snow shoveling, property management and paying repairmen higher prices for emergency fixes.
