Make sure you use a good quality caulk, especially if you end up caulking that joint, as the cheap stuff dries up and cracks within a couple years.  

Hello William,It's unfortunate they have bad communication and have left you high and dry.

Timing all the programs like Calfa and others just drip dry in about 1-2 weeks each time they have $$. 

You mentioned prices sky rocketing b/c of owner occupants - that’s the core of what I’m saying as an investor I don’t care what the rent is I care about- ROI - ROT ( return on time/money velocity)- Return on Capital- appreciation/risk with market cycles- LiabilityThe cheapest Duplex in Lakewood currently is listed for $149,000 and combined rent of less then $1400 a month ( last time I looked)My point is sure rents can be raised a few hundred dollars, but let’s say you raise $600 for the overall unit.

Is there another deal you need dry powder for?

Seeing as some folks have small closet units or next to no space for a washer/dryer, the 2 newer units they compare might fit the bill.The GE Profile UltraFast all in one is pretty cool. 4.8cuft wash and dry all in one.

I am in the Southern Maine area if that mattersGoal and costs : So I am looking to purchase land and build a 50x100 metal building for dry storage which will on average produce 10-15K per month profit after expenses.

There are many uses besides dry cleaners or gas stations that can pose environmental risks. 

I just sat through the whole webinar and a lot of what he said was true about retail buyers entering the market, hedge funds buying in bulk, reo's drying up, spending time analyzing deals, etc...

Note; paper underlayment will be cheapest, but it's cheap for a good reason, and it's not its robust life expectancy...The strapping you mentioned is a slight added cost, but if done properly (vents at the eve/drip edge and ridge), can actually help lower inside attic or top-floor temperatures, as you now have an "air gap" to help alleviate some of the penetrating UV heat, as well as helping to drain and dry condensation that WILL form on the backside of a metal sheathing.
