I have a feeling you can get some great input from people on this website who are currently invested in your neck of the woods.

It seemed like a good idea to go with the smaller broker who was giving an 80/20 commission split but with no deals in sight that meant that my 80% was zero dollars.For your purposes with investing, I'd try to find a brokerage that works primarily with investors.

Thankfully we did not have the drywall in yet, but had to replace the wood flooring in dining room.

I know here your price is high and wood floors are prefered over tile.For me here, hardwood is the way to go.

I have used Home Surplus in Keyport for cabinets and doors but lately disappointed with price increases (all plywood,full raised wood front panels, no slam drawers and decent selection).

Five are in your neck of the woods, Fresno, Visalai and Tulare.

Look for cat scratching posts and scratch marks on wood door frames and snagged fabric on couches/chairs where a cat may have scratched.

I'm pretty sure that in Alabama for a roof that size with two layers of shingles you're looking at a little more than $15k depending on type of shingles, numbers of vents/pipes/chimneys/ridge vents, and how much wood has to be replaced after removing those two layers.

In Hind sight though I sold my Palo Alto house because it was going to be 500 a month negative...
