I know this seems to be a topic that many are seeking info on lately, and I am happy to see how much debate has already happened on these boards about it.I am still in the proces of figuring out all the steps it takes to cut out the endless amount of middlemen, and get to the sources, or at least the people who can truely help me on my mission.I am not easily shocked, or offended, so always be stright forward with me.Thank you in advance.

I’m shocked CWD hasn’t notified you of a leak or high water usage.

:I hadn't thought this was that exciting, but recently told a hard money lender about it, and he was shocked at the deal I got, so figured I would share it.

I am shocked that commercial is that far behind residential.
