You do understand the difference between the common area policy (hopefully) carried by your HOA and the policy you are carrying for your unit don't you?

I've been consuming many of Josh and Brandon's podcasts on my drive to and from work and just recently finished reading the very common "Rich Dad Poor Dad."  

What are the best resources to determine the trend of a housing market over the last few years and project into the near future?

In my area there is a lot of older housing from 1900s on smaller lots so conversion activities vs adding new additions is common.

Hello BP,I'm in contract on a nice little rental house that has some great potential, there is just one catch.The existing tenants (very nice people) are an elderly couple (75+), on a fixed income, have a laundry list of health issues, and have a ton of stuff in the house, not hoarders but more stuff than 2 people should have.

Most condo policies cover your unit (stud in) the HOA covers the building (studs out) and common areas.

Representing the Buyer and Seller is common in my state. 

Ok,Im a home health Physical therapist and have the opportunity to cruise through many neighborhoods a day and think i have found a home that may benefit a whole sale specialist.

Weeds and overgrown common areas, cars parked in yards, and trash.

How restrictive they are may be estimated initially by the overall appearance of the common areas and the individual lots in a community.
