During my look at some properties, and working with my realtor to decide which properties are even worth looking at, I found myself running into the problem of seeing there is not much available at the moment that can cash flow decently, or even looks desirable to invest in due to issues with the properties that would run my wallet dry.

While my company has a hard time paying our employees because we have to increase our prices to pay them, I completely understand their predicament.I am so happy I am 71-years old and won't have to deal with the problems in this world that I foresee e.g. if something doesn't happen where we get tons of rain I California, Las Vegas and Arizona are going to have very serious problems and I really don't think we will ever get enough rain to fill all the lakes that are bone dry, right now.

Expanding on the title, the multifamily home market dried up in my desired zip codes recently.

Sunday I cleaned everything up, took out the trash (3 large trash bags full), washed the dishes, cleaned the stove and walls, washed the trashcan and recycling bin and put them out on the balcony to dry and air out, swept the floor and mopped.

If showings and inquiries have dried up then it's time to lower the price.

Thank you for your insight, I had no clue who to contact with the city, now I do so fingers crossed!

His books 'beat around the bush' too much and I never ever invest based on predictions by anybody including the news, brokers, friends, or analysts because that is like investing based on going to a fortune teller and then you have to cross your fingers, pray and hope your God hears you and will deliver.

The house is liveable but we just cannot place a name to the smell other than old, dry trash.
