HiLooking for a home improvement contractor to conduct Home Inspections in and around the Hartford Connecticut areas.

Even when I go eat out at a restaurant I can spot things that can improve operations and profit right away.I just love commercial real estate as a brokerage transacting and the restaurant business is good money but very long hours.

You only need to improve a little bit and you will pass.

In fact, most business's use terms to improve cash flow.

Have you done any improvements that would push the value up?  

Those are some pretty amazing homes that, if the area improves at all, will be huge moneymakers.

It's unclear what expenses include, but I presume it covers most of the basics such as water/sewer/garbage, hydro, and basic maintenance, but likely doesn't cover costs such as property management fees, improvements/upgrades (if any), insurance, taxes, etc.With a list price of $509K, let's say I got it for $480K and put down 25% ($120K).
