You should at least try to drive by and peek into it if you can (if vacant anyway).

Found from family that drive by and keep on place for us since we live in FL and house in ohio..They noticed 2 things, cat house in window and cats in windows...which my policy and lease state no pets.

Time spent driving is wasted time and time is money.

You'll need to eat in, drive an older model car, and scrimp/save and only spend money on necessities until you're truly in a financial position to "splurge" once in a while on those nicer things and not have it set you back. 

Heck, grab 10 on each of it helps drive the cost down.

If there was an anchor project coming that would have an impact on the neighborhood values then the connected money would already be investing and driving up prices (see: Westport).Q: Maybe wholesale it?

And I’ve met people who make enough to cover all their bills from their job, yet the government still covers 70% of their rent.it’s not a matter of “the financial situation they’re in”.When people don’t have to pay for something, they are more likely to not keep care of it.In terms of my crime comment, drive around.
