I want to fire that guy right now and he isn't even mine.

“Overcorrected” from being stationed overseas in small home for 3 years and bought the big house with a pool in Southeastern US 2 years ago (I just started listening/reading about FIRE and real estate investing ~6 months ago…wish I had done that sooner).

Upon growing up, I got to visit Sydney multiple times, and it sparked the fire in me to see the world.

Does that second floor window require a fire ladder installed permanently, or can one be provided as a stand-alone unit?

Keep that fire burning!

From you POV, is it ethical to work with multiple agents at the same time or it's better to select one and "fire" them if it doesn't work out after a certain amount of weeks/months?

I own a duplex that caught fire.

Back away from the fire before you get burned.

If you're very lucky, your existing walls will go down far enough to account for the added height, but it's unlikely.Just a heads up, if the city deems you need to upgrade your service and utility lines to account for an additional unit, and/or add sprinklers and/or add a fire alarm system, this is going to cost you quite a bit.

My partner with a regular 100% equity 401(k) told me he saw a >$200k Covid-19 drop, hopefully he is up again.Another neighbor we just sat with (6ft apart @ the fire pit) told me his retirement plans are shot because of his 401(k) pullback??
