I am very much a "DEY" guy - not "do it yourself", but "do everything yourself".

My lawn guy has a low credit score and he is the most trustworthy person I know who has paid back two personal loans we made to him over the years! 

Are you looking for one contractor to do all the work or a painter to paint 100units, a tile guy for 100 units, etc.?

Would any of you guys have an idea what he means by this?

I had my guy quote me on pulling the old, 4 foot fluorescent, light fixture, sheetrocking the ceiling, putting in recessed lighting etc.

I know this, I work with one guy that watches how many home cooked meals his landlord makes, how many visitors he has which he prepare meals for.

.- I may be too practical to let myself purchase a mediocre deal and I am not interested at all in a bad deal.I realize this is an emotional and impulsive desire to have something flashy instead of another safer, practical rental, but I want to hear from you guys: Is it possible to find a cheap beachfront studio and make enough cash to consider it an investment, or would I just be throwing money away for a slightly brag-worthy deed?

Hi guys, recently bought a 3 unit place in Chicago's Bucktown.

Thank you guys!

Thank you again and please let me know if you guys ever network and get-together.
