So in Texas and in Nebraska, in one city each I think, they have started a 'rental permit' and 'renters permit'.

Though you may want the security of owning homes free and clear, you may be able to purchase more homes faster if you use the extra income generated by your rentals.

Sounds like a good deal if the rents are for real AND the area is desirable (C in the midst of A sounds like the donut hole - people don't want that, they want the donut).EDIT:Also, make certain this is truly a quad by zoning and permitting, and not some building with fewer units that was then illegally converted to more units.

Her thoughts were that an umbrella policy would be fine and that LLCs were just extra paperwork.

I am upset that extra money was spent on the better style of fence and would have been happy to have spent less money.

You would take out the permit, making you responsible for everything getting done to get the notice of completion.

However I'm anal, and I just like to go that extra mile.

It has an extra "hobby" room for "experiments" "

Have you tried just calling them and saying "hey, two gallons would have been an extra $7 (or whatever) and would have saved me $37, can't you just charge me for 150 and give me the cheaper price?"

Second, if work has not been completed and permits signed off, the buyer's stuck with finishing the project and that's worth a big chunk of the value added.Keep in mind that, just as a $10,000 car with a $3,000 dent is not worth $7,000, I would begin by really examining why this property fit my portfolio If it doesn't, I'd want make sure that I didn't get stuck with it.
