I let the people know that I have nothing to hide and they're welcome to call the city's building department or court and ask about me.Several of my relatives ask me every year at Christmas how many I have.

I agree the tenant pool is a smaller and after going though some visits over the weekend with my contractors it looks like there is some foundation issues that needs to be taken care of so the repair costs is trending more like $30-33K.

I plan to put the email out to the list we've built up from the last 2 events this weekend.

Have a great weekend.

And that he had calls after every parents weekend with complaints.

Looked at a lot of inner city SFR’s as I said no smoking deals yet, so tonight and this weekend going to meet with agents/developers looking at building on a lots and/or developing some land.Been using ciy-data.com which seems pretty accurate, shows median “house or condo values” , income, population, etc……It shows “median gross rents” but that can be from SFR’s.

Jon Klaus I'd love to since I have investment properties out there in Austin but that is the SAME weekend I have to attend a wedding in Chicago :( I wish they would change the date but it doesn't look like they will.

She then goes on to tell me to stop working on the inside and start working on the outside, since that is the problem that the city has with the property and since I am the new owner she will give me 30 days to complete the outside, which we planned to do that weekend anyway. 3 days after her visit, the new siding was installed, outside painted and I emailed her and left her a voicemail notifying her of such, she stopped by and inspected the outside and in turn was able to notify her supervisor who in turn removed the property from the "Watch List-Intent to Demolish" My advice when purchasing reo/foreclosed or abandoned properties-perform your due diligence.. typically if the city has issues with the property or violations, it will not show up on a title report.

I was in Miami a couple of weeks ago on jean Norton mini weekend tour (not one of those multi $ks deals), just an intro to the area and local players (wholesales, agents,contractors Hal's etc.).

It took a good long weekend to do for drying time (including recaulk).
