Louis and found something interesting when looking into the deed records.

@Andrew BeckerOf course they think you're overcharging -- some of them would invariably think you were overcharging if you charged them a quarter a load.Go with a camera system hooked into a DVR recorder.

I'd be aiming to have maximum longterm flexibility--rent the whole place for events while we travel, rent the lower level for a nightly STR when it suits us, or turn 1-2 of the levels into a LTR later on if I get sick of the STR gig.

Hi, My Name is Tom and I am new to the BP community although a long time listener.I am getting started in the REI game and looking to learn a lot and potentially meet/partner with others locally.I’m currently living in Ulster County, NY (Ellenville).I purchased my first residential property about 9 years ago and have been considering a number of Multi-Family/Unit options locally and in the Columbia/Irmo, SC area.Outside of my interest in Real Estate I also enjoy traveling, Craft Beer (I brew my own!)

I would like a record of all this.

Dear BP family, Often times there's a discrepancy between a recorded sales price on a county's website and zillow.

I just checked the Thurston County Recorder website and there were only 2 Lis Pendens (start of judicial foreclosure process) filed in the entire month of December.

I got his number from a inspection report that was filed online and is public record.

Some cameras record 24/7, while others are turned on when a door is opened. 

In these types of situations, I find it far safer for me as the buyer to take control of the property by doing this a subject-to type of transaction (we get title and record with a title company).
