Other things shes complained about is the toilet having a black ring in it which could easily be cleaned off, that's only from water sitting in it for a month, Water heater being tripped and power being tripped because she tugged a adaptor out of the wall and broke it off into the outlet.

Is this something that others think would be a powerful tool?

That seemed to fix things until recently.This past Saturday, I got a text at about 9 PM - the thermostat had power, but wasn't responding to the buttons, and (more importantly) was not calling for cool.  

I go into her room and she has 2 fans going, an alarm clock, an Iphone charger, all hooked up to the same power strip and (the kicker) her hair dryer. 

I’ve consistently seen solar-powered homes sell for a 2% premium, which in my market means $20k over comps. 

The black swan that I learned from the inspector (which now is my major barrier) is that the 2nd building is being fed power by a 100 amp sub panel from the main house BUT it’s only being fed with 50 amps....

If you wait a year you will have more capital and purchasing power.

As a result, the lower potential earnings power doesn't have the effect you think it does. $1 Million of cash value can generate as much after tax income as $3 Million in traditional retirement assets in an IRA. 

Hi Brain,On a side note, dress well (you never get a second chance to make a first impression) and make a friend...this could turn out to be a profitable long term relationship, and friends are always nicer to deal with than bureaucrats.Good Luck!

Two of the major issues that I'm concerned about is finding a shop that does 30 year mortgages on investment properties and one that calculates effective leases into the overall purchasing power.
