Why compare, they are apples to oranges in regards to everything.

If you have ever heard the saying that a "rising tide lifts all boats", it means when the market is going up everyone will see positive return.

I’m disabled in the sense that I can’t do heavy lifting.

It helps if you box, lift weights and practice Krav Maga or other offensive/defensive combat skills.You also need 3M talent. 

I generally work on commercial finance, so we tend to approach these decisions by comparing net present values (if you've nailed down your opportunity cost of capital) and internal rates of return on an apples-to-apples basis.

We are funded from a mix of LIFT bonds/LIHTC/TIF and a loan for the rest.Thank you!

Why are you the one doing the heavy lifting” and not the seller?

Good luck.You're talking about apples and oranges. 

When removing the trees, they want me to lift up the brick paver on their side (they are small bricks and look easy to remove and put back) and check underground if there are roots and whether they cause foundation issues on their side.

Imaing eoyu have a dumptruck LOADED with apples.
