    Sitting at 7% but every week doing something to increase value. Been filling at least 5 wheel barrels full of dirt and dumping them every day after work. Got a giant pod in the driveway and the basement about 90% empty. Water proofing this week and electrician as soon as one is open.

    Appeaser came Saturday. Waiting to hear what he comes up with. Wife is freaking out. So i had her find some open houses . Everything under 400k seems to need 100 to 150 in rehab. They were asking 375. Not a half million dollar home when complete.
