Found it Brandon Turner's post on the twenty best real estate books

Sounds like you're off to a roaring start, and it's great you're joining a local group; it definitely is helpful to meet the major players and pick their brains. 

Hi Jordan, I’m looking in the teens to twenties

As far as buying a deli in NY for 200,000k or less, 1) it is possible, look on any bizbuysell type of site, and 2) it's not unheard of to get financing when starting a business. 3) on Additionally, as a former RE Broker with inconsistent income, I was asked by my very large landlord (top twenty by units in the city) for a 3 month security deposit. 

But, I've been doing these for twenty years.

Our design criteria was to have zero major repairs for twenty years.

After twenty years I transferred out of an employee relationship and for a while became a contract accountant and also full time REI. 

I received an estimate of $1,400.00 to replace five sheets of siding; replace twenty-five feet of 1x2 boards; caulk, scrape and paint exterior.

I live across the street from such a house for like 3 years now.It can be okay and quiet or like the middle year here,,,VERY noisy with goings and comings all times of the entire night.If somebody wasnt roaring up on a motor cylce the boyfriends were going and coming all times of the nite.

Twenty years ago is was a percentage of the trade amount, unless you were trading "odd lots" (not multiples of 100 shares) in which case you paid a premium.
