Scott he stresses the importance of making sure you get to see the Actual data after the initial Pro-Forma.

For instance I'm good at gathering data and and asking probing questions.

Create is a website that pools together data from local government codes, tax assessments, surveys, and planning.

So I have spent the last 10 days trying to get a card designed that I can run through my own printer using a mail merge data list.

We also used the opportunity provided by the extend of the demolition to do the following:Install a free-floating, insulated (R10) subfloor (a first for us) over the slab on the main level;move the laundry under the stairs to the second level - a better use of space than the deep sloped ceiling closet that was there;resize kitchen - we made the kitchen 42" longer, but this necessitated moving the electrical panel into an 18" upper cabinet;reconfigure the bathroom - with the laundry not moved out of the bathroom, we made the bathroom a little deeper (about 6"); moved the toilet slightly; shifted the tub about 18" and moved the vanity to the other side of the room;reduce the size of the living room window to an 18" transom window giving much more usable wall space;replace the broken windows with Energy Star certified windows tuned for their exposure;build an entertainment feature wall on the living room side of the stairwell.open-up both sides of the stair well (living room and hall by bathroom) - this allows for better air circulation - a necessity when we install the heat pump.Here are a few select shots of the process:Demolition begins:Repairing sections of wall:All electrical and data network runs were installed, then next came the insulation:We finished shifting our plumbing and patching the slab.Next we "leveled" the slab ... ok, we made it better ... and laid the subfloor:Note that we installed 4" high, plywood spacers around the perimeter to keep the floor ~1/2" away from the external walls.  

My passion for data has caused me to search the net for information about real estate investing, and I find Bigger Pockets to be an excellent source of that information.

I told her the poor customer service was yet another significant issue.The next day a different assistant contacted me and acknowledged the Intuit software update and the resulting data corruption was the cause for the problems and costs associated with the issues I was dealing with.  

We take a very data driven approach to our investment strategy and opt to acquire a couple really good asset vs. a larger amount of assets with average returns.
