It is in TexasI bet Moscow Texas has fallen out of favor with the media these days. 

I'll bet most of the people on this site had similar childhoods...and we are (almost all) well-adjusted, functioning adults!  

I'm a member of the Facebook group for the club and I'd love to come to a meeting but I work on Tuesday's so chatting on here is my best bet for now.

If there are $2500 in materials, an ok bet is to factor $5000 total for the work.

Which one provides a safer bet for cash flow and stable renters?  

It is always safer to do a cash out refinance after you have completed your 1031 Exchange.

As a practical matter you can bet that your exploitative tenant, who has already lawyered up and sent you a legal letter, is going to try and halt your eviction.

If there are large issues - structural, safety issues with a home, you can pretty much bet a creditor is going to want to hold a repair escrow on top of everything. 

Are you betting on property appreciation or are you cash flowing?

@David Forester, it'll be interesting to see, but @Eddie Lehwald has a lot of timing issues, and based on the 10-1 city council's voting record, my bet is that they're looking to preserve the inner neighborhoods and promote density on the outskirts.
