If you are considering making it a rental I would suggest imagining having to go there at night.

Even if you could predict when, and even if you when you were in it, you are missing deals that you could be making...waiting for something that is hard to define until years after it has happened.Here's my tagline at the bottom of all my emails:  "The things that come to those who wait, are the things that are left behind, by those that get there first". nice quote, so instead of waiting do you suggest just diving in?

Any suggestions or is there no way in obtaining such number without having an inspection completed?
