The knob and tube just might do that so leave it in place and get great insurance...All kidding aside, the counties/towns assessors in NY are salivating light Saint Bernards at breakfast time when they see a house sell for way more than their current assessment...

Three years ago a house adjacent to mine was purchased by a family with several kids.

They like house and town and kids in school for 4 more years. 

My only kid will going to college this year.

Look around n if almost everyone is stretching to afford a 30 year mortgage, but they are gonna be dead sooner than that.. if everyone overpaid for cheaply constructed, oversized housing units just to show off their great schools - but their kids are out if school, I worry.

I’ve found a SFH which is a 3bd 3ba house that would typically rent to college kids.

Is it gonna be sold to a family with children or a college kid who doesn’t care about school zones.

If you understand how septic systems work (I grew up in that business as a kid) they are not as scary as many might think.

It can also make you seem desperate, so there is that.But don't kid yourself that it has been all positive feedback.

When your kids ask where daddy invested in real estate back in 2019, where do you think they hoped you picked?
