@Maurice Collier I'd start getting the property rent ready, such as safety things, and perhaps look into some upgrades ... especially dishwasher, washer/dry, new flooring, paint, outdoor space, deck, but it depends a lot on your market, and how much money and time you want to invest.

The income property investment in Orange County is pretty dry right now.

Syndication want big and bigger, while the self managing or weekend investors are chipping away at the lower market, leaving the middle market high and dry when it comes to buyers.

After the slab has been poured, and has had a chance to dry sufficiently, these cables are pulled and anchored, adding strength to the slab.

I recommend building a relationship with a direct lender at some point so that when your family/friend money (if you have it) runs dry, you have somewhere to go.

The conservative approach Joe laid out for you or the more agrressive cash-out refi approach.There isn't necessarily a cut and dry right way to do it, but rather it depends on your individual goals and risk tolerance.

I currently pay for the water since I want to be sure the yard stays nice and doesn't dry up.  

Like everywhere, the market is drying up in Nashville and is getting very competitive.

Dry city. 

I immediate suspect sewer gas, may be from dried up trap seals on plumbing fixtures.
