It’s important to remember that current figures are being compared to very strong housing market activity in 2016, so a decline in home sales growth does not automatically mean that the market is softening.Mark Sprague, State Director of Information Capital for Independence Title, agrees:“Low inventory levels, high home prices and slowing job growth across the region are preventing a resurgence of the record-breaking numbers experienced the last two years, but overall the region’s housing market remains very strong.

Biggest advice you can probably get: take it slow.

Slow drip from ceiling in kitchen.

If so, there might be a slow leak in the main.  

Strawberry Mansion is slowly getting spill over from Brewerytown, but its a very slow spillover. 

Consider setbacks (from the property line), etc as they will control how wide and deep the house may be and how it will sit on the lot.

Sometimes it is discouraging going so slow, especially when you listen to the podcast and hear about a guy 10+ years younger who bought 25 properties in his first year of investing.

Bank turned off electric, sump pump couldn't work, flooded basement, and caused mold in house, had to gut all walls, ceiling, insulation, baths, kitchen, floor covering, everything to the studs, and needed new roof, new electric, new heating and most of new plumbingOther than that it was a slow year! 

To get the best price you need to have a properly performing property.. get rid of the manager, find another one.. use google if you have to... you are going to get 60-80% of the value if you sell with a vacancy.. suck it up, get a new manager, claim some proffit and then get out.Honestly, you should dig deep with these potential buyers and see if they are related to the manger...

So all you end up doing is spending some cash and slowing everyone else down.
