They called Mercy flight & then OSA, the police & everyone showed up & the contractor is in a very tough spot & lost that job.

Now if you kept 2 boats on the dock and did Airbnb on those 2 while you lived on the hook, that could be the golden ticket!

First thing I look for is the BIG ticket items.How are the windows, roof furnace/AC siding, any signs of water damage if there is a basement is it wet does it have bowed walls, what is the general condition of the electrical system. 

If I consider the less than ideal location for maximising rents, might not be appropriate for a first time buy :)What numbers can never tell me is the appropriateness of the building age and if that was an issue; as investors how much weight do you give to the building age assuming big ticket items are ok?

So, I signed up and got free tickets to the monthly meeting for this month's Tuesday for me and a guest.

Again, everyone should have reserves or an "emergency fund" to cover big ticket repairs, but the idea of saving $28.93 per month to replace a $300 dishwasher in 8 years is ridiculous.

They give you ticket each won, then you can have all the ticket to cashier and pay for it.

Might be a little more worth it If you purchased a large package deal or somewhat where the roi is justifiable.If you are really considering that area then definitely take a flight and drive around Macon and look closely at those areas where you have properties in mind before you purchase, get property management etc.  

I have some rather big ticket items that we are doing before we list our house for RENT, and not sure what category I should expect them to fall in.New Kitchen Floor ($4000)New Central Air System ($10000)New Dehumidifier System ($1500)Thanks for any input

I always look at those places and then remember how much the plane tickets are and how long it takes to get to them, buying one even at a low price might not be worth messing with if I cant enjoy it.
