Thanks for the pictures.You should start an importing supply chain from Europe for that flooring!

Wal Mart looks pretty good, you'll get an employee discount on a phone and a fax machine as well as some office supplies, maybe food too.

If you have MLS access comb through the high expireds and withdrawns for this situation-only takes one.Trust me fighting with the appraiser is an up hill battle, not because of the appraiser's ego but becuase the UW already has seen report, buyers side has possibly seen report, FHA hates to see an increase.In the future; price the property based on current sales/listings, try not to meet appraiser at property, dont supply comps unless asked, HVCC help squash this (now called AIR), supply a list of upgrades(perhaps same list that should be on site), tell appraiser what permits were pulled, make sure water/utilities are on, make sure all remodeling work is finished.The appraisal matters more on what has sold in the past 3 months and is currently listed and under contract more than the condition of the subject.

If I could do anything differenly I would have been more aggressive when I was younger, and secondly I wish I would have networked and worked on bigger deals with other people instead of using my money and buying alone.Best of luck and remember if you can dream it you can achieve it!!

There was such an over saturation of supply.

If I do some aggressive marketing, and lets say its effective, what are the possibilities in a market my size?

Insurance, maintenance, utilities, management, supplies, etc.

They cost about $15 at HD and less than $10 at a plumbing supply place.There's also a trick to replace them without draining the tank.

On the other hand demand for oil is down and supply is up due to production – very good for America, but bad for others like Russia.

If it continues then you can be more aggressive.
