@Daniel MillsWe've almost never sold a property with boarded up windows, but I view boarded up basement windows as a permanent enhancement, not a temp situation.Windows above the basement are a totally different story and we would remove the boards to sell unless we are flipping totally as is and need the boards for security.

Or, when the fat pig sings & flies.

In my uneducated opinion, I think there's such a massive in-flow of out-of-state people that appreciation will still rise and rents will rise due to house hunters needing a temporary place to stay while they find their permanent residence for awhile; how long, I have no idea.  

But I was offended, and angry, and she was permanently in my bad books.

My plan is to live in the 1/1 for a year or two until I find something more permanent for me.

I just hope the changes we've seen here aren't permanent. 

The answer is a big fat NO.

The Permanent retireres really don't have the means to improve there lots in life .All the major cities Jax , Orlando , Tampa , Miami have there A , B, C, and worse neighborhoods Drugs , Single Parents ,Gangs the lists go on as to the reasons why . 

You need to do something to permanently get the water going somewhere else.
