The triumphs (Yes, I did just score a closeout deal on product that actually matches the design and adds $800 to the bottom line) and the Marketing and selling (which is where the fun really begins).

Awesome, we just confirmed the location for Berkeley Library on Saturday August 2nd.I hope that many people will come from the San Francisco Bay Area, Oakland, Berkeley etc.http://www.meetup.com/Berkeley-Cash-Flow-Club-and-Real-Estate-Investing/events/190572912

Once I had confirmation of intention to terminate the current lease then and only then would I sign a new lease with the husband.  

The rest I believe is up to your settlement company to dig up and confirm if you're gonna be able to get clear title after the contract is signed...

Has your contractor given you a bid, or has an agent at least confirmed your numbers?

@Collette Douglas In a former life, I worked as a structural analyst on the Space Station design.  

It needs about $70,000 in repairs.Going to the City on Monday to see if I can try to stop the demolition with a letter from a licenced contractor confirming they will repair it.

My plan for now is to rent out property, probably starting with either a single family or multi family (probably not in the bay area).I'm currently a product designer and have worked at big tech companies, so if anyone has design/tech questions feel free to hit me up!

Very good information to know if somebody can confirm?
