Justin R.Definitely hard to find decent rentals in California for cash flow solely.The midwest is generally considered one of the best areas for cash flow as the price of homes compared to rental is rather low.Some southeast markets like Memphis, Birmingham, Jackson.It really depends on what you're looking for.Each area is unique for many reasons.Best of Luck!

Well it's not all that creative but it has it's own uniqueness.

Yeah after decorating we took pictures and went live.

now, the HOA should also have (sometimes really hidden in the papers or completely forgotten and never distributed to owners) a Minimum sound reduction index per building/multifamily.you need to beat that.what's next depends if the builder managed to secure/nail the plywood sub-floor into the joists and NOT INTO THIN AIR...so you may need 6mm cork glued, some whisperquiet/sound barrier (3-6 mm) , then you wood floor/laminate. some laminates comes with pad included.... also may need to adjust you doors/threshold and live enough space at walls for material to expand.short version: find the minimum requirements for the sound index for flooring, choose your material colors, go to the floor store in your area (floor and decor, century tile, lumber liquidators, menards, home depot, etc etc) and check with a knowledgeable associate. if not you need to talk with a contractor working in your area...tip: get to talk with your building engineer/maintenance people. they inspect the work so they/him should know what works and what not, and (key) where you can buy it quicker/cheaper!!!

Real Estate is unique,  real estate is a tangible, cash-flowing, insurable asset that I can borrow against.  

I am brainstorming for an upcoming local business trade show hosted by our chamber of commerce that brings through about 5,000 attendees.I'd like to have a promotional item to give away for our brokerage with a relevant and/or unique appeal - something with a long "shelf life" and not disposable.What promotional items have you have good success / response with?

Also, anything we should be aware of in terms of certain neighborhoods or unique situations to Lompoc?

that place is unique..

Throughout the process he continued to go over budget and we tried to help with giving him some allotments early and signing over a 3K decorating budget which was for painting, something i planned to do.
