If you have higher end properties, not so good.Section 8 tenants tend to be rougher on their living quarters.

Veneering with quarter inch or replacing completely are last options unless you're doing a complete rehab.

It's much easier for a tenant (even one that dropped out of eighth grade) to turn the water off if it has quarter turn ball valves, as opposed to multi turn gate valves.I highly recommend replacing the valves when you buy a house.

He will have the forms, verification of income/employment or get tax returns and verify assets.Might also pin the buyer down to show a deposit to his bank account, monthly or quarterly to keep on track of the agreed purchased term.

I've added over a quarter of a million to my net worth in that time.

@Mike Nelson - Be careful not to step over quarters to pick up a nickle.

Also changed were the baseboards from two and three-quarter inches to 5 inches in height, raised cabinet doors instead of flat doors, granite bathroom countertops, and crown molding in both the living room and master bedroom.

I'm sure you're prepared to do this level of DD.One option for you is to draw a circle (or in your case on the coast a quarter of a circle) extending out 150 miles from your home and consider that an area where you could feasibly invest.

I had several letters from CW in the 1st quarter which did not have the restriction.

I'm only about a quarter of the way there.
