Hello all, wanted to throw this link out there as a way to see a lot of the major development projects that are ongoing in the city all in one place and is updated regularly.

My husband and I are looking to buy a fixer upper from our city to rehab for our future primary residence. 

So my thoughts would be why not buy a great ROI property in the U.S. that you have more control over and is easier to get to and then visit Central or South America with the profits?

My husband and I are wanting to move to Tyler, Texas to be closer to my dad.

Right now, I have a friend who is considering adding a half bath to his first floor by removing a closet w/o a permit and I am really trying to convince him not to. 

My wife and I are in escrow on a duplex in our city.

On the flip side, if I keep the property and rent for the above values, I would be paying off the debt every month from the income, essentially making me debt free due to the payments being covered, and I keep the asset, which will start cash flowing a lot once debt is gone. 

You and I fell in love and started dating due to Bigger Pockets hehe

After some discussion in which I advised security deposit was held on behalf of both parties, he withdrew request until end of lease in September.I have advised girlfriend of his call, and she then stated that the security deposit monies really belongs to her.My dilemma is that the lease is coming to an end, and I understand that in PA, a landlord is required to return 1 month security deposit if lease is to be extended.The place has not been vandalised and is basically being taken care of, and I'm willing to renew lease with the girlfriend, who very interested in renewing lease, but who also now appears to have allowed a new boyfriend to move in.I suppose I could have this situation handled by hiring a lawyer, but my challenge is how should I go about retaining at least 1 month security deposit while returning the other. 

Wanted $299 and I offered $250.
