I'm not worried because its not like I am sending pics of dead animals or something.

I could be dead by then!

If we had pulled the trigger on one $7,000 roof replacement, instead of buying $50 bundle of shingles and patching, we might have been dead in the water from an operating cash perspective. 

I'm fully aware of that statement now because we had a lot more dead beats and tire kickers than expected (just a bad time of year to rent).

Purchase price: $262,000 Cash invested: $120,000 Foreclosed home that the bank forgot to shut the water off in the dead of winter in MN.

I have been working the same dead end job for 10yrs and I am still renting.

I'm trying to settle on a target market before I flesh out the rest of my investment plan. 

Your local bank may lend you on the purchase but you're drawing dead on rehab funds from them. 

If have fleshed out those terms you will be much better off.

While Ducati has faired well enough, Moto Guzzi is pretty much dead in the water.
