Thanks all, glad u liked the story.

yea especially if u have a citi card lol

And yes, it is common to have a leak originate in your unit, and flood out numerous floors below...I think my record is only six other units, but I have heard of even more extensive damage in local highrises.If you own a condo, you MUST replace washer hoses with no-burst stainless braided hoses, and not the cheap chinese ones either!

Do patios strengthen or worsen rent?

I can't speak for other investors, but I am personally much more interested in a town like Bloomfield, where ARVs can exceed $400k and there is demand for nicer homes, but where there are also run-down properties your u can target.

If u think about it, rehab goals are to get ARV which is close if not FMV which at lower end, entry level new housing is often not that much difference in pricing.

But I did run into a guy a few days ago that said we investors are unsung heroes and I just wanted to share w u guys....  

Got u, thanks a lot for the insight 

Jeremy Tillotson who already posted on here and has a lot of knowledge regarding real Estate  has also been a huge help to me and would more than likely be to u also.
