If you have one...if it's a lost my shirt story, skip it, cause it's not quite what I want to hear right now.

I live here in Ohio where the state government has caused an exodus of good jobs over the past several years.

I own a house in South Dakota but live in Oklahoma now.I have a negative cash flow from this house of about $150 month.Do you think I should hang on to this house for a while to see if I can turn a profit, or am I just trying to hang onto a lost cause?

Not living there while not being on the lease, not causing trouble, just spending the night.

I guess they need to be helped out a little when looking at a vacant place, cause they just can't see past that.Hey whatever - small investment, and the place is sold!

NO CASH FLOW will never cause you anything but a headache.

Cause someone told me that he knew someone that bought and sold a hosue within a year and he had to pay $50k in taxes...

This caused the foreclosure rate in his subdivision to exceed normal parameters affecting overall property values in his neighborhood.

thank God, cause it's been a long hard ride so far....Full figures to come out when I CLOSE...I'm not one to count change before it's in my hand...don't want to jinx myself.Thanks everyone - especially those who counseled me every step of the way.
