I'm currently in the oilfield, and have been very successful in this avenue of my life.  

yup.)My biggest regret in (my financial) life was not  not picking up the homes that went into foreclosure in my neighborhood back in 2007-2008.  

You and your family will never be in want of something to do here.I have lived in the city of Philadelphia my entire life and have worked in the suburbs most of my adult working life. 

You might get at least an idea on how much life the roof has left in it, and how old your water heater is, HVAc, heating system, etc and figure out a number to set aside for replacing those someday. 

We have done very well self managing and investing in this crazy life ;)

BP has changed my life!

Her life, her decision. 

Most of my life i have been captivated by real estate.

I would see if that seller, your PM, is willing to consider picking up a part of the replacement expense, since you received a credit for less than half the replacement cost, but two years is far less than half the life expectancy of a roof.

Hi All,I'm 25 years old, so social media plays a big part in my life (or used too).
