Example, a concrete yard for CA is 95/cubic yard, that's only concrete, plus you have environmental fees, pumper fee (if applicable), labor installation, another is, you can't hire someone below 15/hr here who knows what they're doing, unskilled labor, maybe 15/hr but all they do is carry materials, with work comp and taxes, if you pay at 15, you'll end up at 23-28/hr on carpenter trade.

I have done much reading about investing in RE, and I believe it is time I take action.

It's also important to set a timeline for action, otherwise you're liable to turn into a Librarian here;-)

When you need to take any action with the property (ex. refinance, sell, etc) you would just reverse the process and take the property out of the trust and/or LLC back into your name.

The tenant never knew this was the case, but it was clearly an instruction to me that alternative actions would be required should the tenant(s) begin to display problematic behavior.On more than one occasion those particular subtenants asked "what happens if I just walk away" and my response was always "remember, you signed a personal guarantee" never adding anything more and then changing the subject.Thankfully, I never had to engage a significant default with those that evolved into problem tenants (other than really late rents) and was able to resolve any issues through continuous communication with the tenant.

They have gotten bids but no action has been taken because they say there are no funds to pay for the re pipe.  

Action is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.Thank you

I get to HD, start talking to the manager, surprisingly everyone sprung into action, they are calling to get the surveillance video, calling other stores, attempting to block the items from being returned w/o the receipt, which I had by the way.In the mist of all these advocates working for me, i get a text.

The necessary steps are: 1. a definite purpose backed by burning desire for its fulfillment, 2. a definite plan, expressed in continuous action, 3. a mind closed tightly against all negative and discouraging influences, including negative suggestions of relatives, friends, and acquaintances, and 4. a friendly alliance with one or more persons who will encourage one to follow through with both plan and purpose."
