What you put at risk, 3+ years of work and equity gained would be for the hope of further appreciation and that being after wear and tear of a rental, not worth going there in my off hand opinion and after considering the opportunities with your cash proceeds from the sale, that puts renting further behind as a good choice.

I can't give any good insight regarding investing in D.C or the college town, but personally I would prefer the college town.In order to identify a good neighborhood, you need to become familiar with everything around it and how that affects real estate.

I also found that I prefer to have the hard copy books even though I'm taking it on-line.

There are many area in nation where you will cash flow, having said that California is not one of them because the prices are too high.I prefer Florida, Texas and Illinois.Good luck.

I asked one of the guys and he said they have been selling the small samples, and mostly were the wives and daughters asking for it.It comes in various scents, from vanilla bean, to fresh air, to sea breeze, to clean and crisp or spring rain to those fruity strawberries etc...and I thought at the time I would try it, just being curious.My concern was also it would repulse some people, I went and read reviews, the brand they sell at the Home Depot is Paint Scentsation.Paint ScentsationIt recommends 1 oz added to 1 gallon of paint, I only used 0.25 oz for a whole gallon and it was pretty mild.I only used it in the two closets, thinking that very few people would object to the scent of a cedar lined closet, and probably prefer that over a musky sweaty closet (especially if they keep the laundry basket there).As for how long it lasts, the web site says:Q.

You could offer to pay them $500 to release the listing.Then you can lease option with the seller and assign the deal to a tenant buyer.Remember- No Equity Deals there are few choices: sub2, lease option, short sale, master lease.

We've put a 60-day notice in our leases for the last few years as we prefer the extra time to prepare for a turnover.

If you'd prefer to negotiate a large %, make sure that is decided up front as well.

I strongly prefer RE.

@Cliff MccueI prefer the city but Im also constantly looking at acquiring in:Park Ridge, Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Palatine, Wheeling
