Basically (in my prior MFR career) I was required to research local management company styles and physical assets to determine their styles.

I am underwriting a self storage property which apparently stays around 80% physically occupied year around and seems charges market rates.

Having my future career taken away, I started car washing to support my wife through school while she got her Masters in Electrical Engineering and B.S in Physics.

The electrical to the house had been cut (physically cut the main), so that may have been why, although I would think they would just include that as part of the appraisal?

Luckily I've known them for a while and they're very trustworthy.I didn't plan to do much physical work on the deal that was frustrated with the situation and decided to rip out the kitchen cabinets myself which was quite fun.

Lastly, I'd be worried about the management (physical and financial) of the complex.

I was scheduled to close on a refinance loan now but my lender told me I have to physically attend the closing and even the Power of Attorney won't help (going to a local American consulate/embassy also won't help) .What legal and creative solution can you suggest?

If you are going on vacation bring your cell phone, no one needs to worry about physical location, you can call anyone from wherever you have service.

I find that by living in a community with different people, I am more physically active, mentally engaged, and life is overall better.

Property is also next to an auto body shop so that's also a bit concerning.
