We go home to Treasure Island, dry, no impact at all!

Augustine and there is very little room to make money on investments here and I know there are those who will say there are all these tired landlords and off market houses if you just drive around but really there are not...and now that the foreclosure sales will be online starting Oct 18 and folks all over the country and even internationally can bid that source will dry up because I think at first at least folks will overbid on those properties...that said please be careful about investing in Jax or Palm Coast ...they have their own issues !!!

@Gino Barbaro  I have owned self storage  it was a unique building in Portland it had 44 units 10X 20's insulated and dry walled with nice garage doors.. and there was 7k sq ft of nice commercial above it.we play heck trying to keep the commercial occupied.. it was in a bad location for commercial as it was off the beaten path BUT right across the levee form a few hundred floating homes and in the middles of a 160 unit townhouse project.. so it took a while but we got it all full. 

Great thread @Andrew Herrig i'm in that dry spell spot haha some time with no deals but I do have a few in escrow, its tough to keep your mind right.  

Once the primer dries, you can spackle any imperfections.

I know it sounds like I'm splitting hairs but some banks write HELOCs in their residential department....which won't write Investment Properties.

Dander, odor, allergies, barking, hair, etc.

It's like working vehicles from the late 80's- early 90's, everything covered in rust, dry rotted gaskets, the more parts you touch the more you spend. 

Question becomes:do i charge washing & drying fees on equipment I own VS.do I sublet the laundry service to some vendor an split the income.I suggest the latter has lots of economic sense and zero owner liability.

The all-in-one combination units I've had success with on 1 bedroom remodels, but they allow a smaller load per cycle, and take a long time to go through a whole wash/dry cycle.
