All that to say that the doom and gloom predictions smells like opportunity and playing defense looks like a much better risk adjusted option than chasing more returns.

For Austin, you are about 5 years late on boarding that ship (you should know this having flipped there) at a value and return that looks and smells good.

I flipped the switch from the garbage supposal and smell of burning mechanical smell.

She is not responding to me or my new property manager.I'm going to send a demand letter, and I'm also considering reporting her to the State of Michigan licensing body (she's a broker and has a real estate license).

I have a hot tub on a well.I have 3 filters inline on my water.My water does not smell like Sulphur either.

This can be very beneficial for new b investors.Also, we would well come any body who would like to help other newbie investors achive there goals.

The governing bodies are working a lot slower than I would prefer but overall it is going well.

On the flip side of the coin, I don't want to own a property that looks like a pig stye and smells like a brewery.

Does any body have any recommendations?
