As far as the style of real estate investing,  I am really interested in learning to flip houses as well as the BRRRR method of long term investing.  

Shop around for some quotes and see who fits your budget and your style.

I'm looking at a typical ranch style house in the 30032 market in Decatur that has an addition, and I am curious as to the what the typical process is in finding out whether this addition is permitted or not.

I'd let tenants know of vandalism,, and hopefully you reported it to police.was a on going problem in our buildings,, outside riff raff..We put in credit card style machines.. which I know are expensive to lease / own.I'd just let tenants know anyone suspicious call the cops,, and keep laundry room access locked,, they are responsible to lock and if this happens again you might not be able to replace machines.. 

Hi,It really depends on your  learning style. 

Personal homes are a life style choice not a investment.

Your writing style will soon reveal who you actually are if anyone cares,  especially if you don't share whatever you're smokin'.

@Amelia GoodyearFannie mae's home style is another way to go but the FHA 203k is a better way to go.

It was a lot of extra work, added about $3k to the work, but my style of home renovation requires something extra for energy efficiency.

Coffee pots and sheets are consumables, just like pillows, towels, toaster ovens and old style televisions.
