schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> So there is an opportunity here.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Whatever's wrong with the place when we leave, blame it on the last guy.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> The new guy is already pretty pissed that he's running into hundreds of problems with the building and this unit really is no exception.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> It has a lot of issues that predate us.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Broken trim, rotting wood, windows that won't open.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> If he starts remodeling this apartment there's really not a lot worse that we could do than what it's already like anyway.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> I'd really like to see the new guy's face if he tries ripping out that shower that mold keeps growing out of.Jul 21 16:40
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> He's probably got thousands of dollars in repairs that need done in this unit alone that have piled up over 50 years. It's wear and tear and nobody who has owned it has felt like fixing it because they just play the sit on it and collect rent and wait on property values.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> It really all depends on how nice he wants to make the units.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Full rehab? Probably $10,000+ a unit for the supplies and whatever labor.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> That would include new fixtures, new carpet, new windows, new air conditioner, new trim.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Multiplied by 26 units means he needs to cough up about $400,000 in capital investments, if he wants to get top dollar out of them.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Because the parking lot needs paved, the building needs a NEWER roof, and the flooring in the common areas is old, broken, and dingy, and the plumbing needs work.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> It's going to be a total money pit.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> He broke himself just buying the place.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Now he can't fix it and that will put a ceiling on the rent and the type of tenants he can attract.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Then he'll run into the "Mark Problem".Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> "I have a building. It's killing me."Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Goes to sell it....NOBODY will pay him what he already has in it.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> He mortgaged it for twice what he can sell it for.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> So even selling it doesn't mean he's out of the woods.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Cursed ObjectJul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> If he is making any money on his other buildings, he's going to spend it all on this place trying to put out a raging fire that won't stop.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> He's picked up a property that will go bust and be taken away from him by the bank eventually.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<schestowitz> yes, but it's the marisol syndromeJul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> "very well maintained"Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> "newer roof"Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> "multi-family building"Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> I can only imagine these being in a version of the heffalumps and woozles song in the new landlord's nightmares.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3very affordable breaskfast at $15 for ham and egg, Marison said..Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Are the pubes extra?Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> There are so many restaurants in Waukegan that are just gross like that.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> There's one on Upside that has a 20 percent rebate right now. El Conchal Mexican Restaurant or something.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> People take pictures of bugs in their food.Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> I will not eat the bugs!Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> I will not live in the pod!Jul 21 16:41
schestowitz-pi3<schestowitz> https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12299927/Man-tortured-trans-activist-brands-dangerous-violent-individual.htmlJul 21 16:42
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Yeah, look at "her".Jul 21 16:42
schestowitz-pi3<DaemonFC> Very convincing "trans" "woman". Clearly very "stable".Jul 21 16:42

schestowitz-pi3>>> Even with a '... no, just kidding' lie at the end, it's a real threat.Jul 21 16:43
schestowitz-pi3>>> Men are many times stronger than women, on average.Jul 21 16:43
schestowitz-pi3>>> There's also the reality of the continued prevalence of domesitic violenceJul 21 16:43
schestowitz-pi3>>> which adds to the reality of the threat.  Yet, that violent political ideologyJul 21 16:43
schestowitz-pi3>>> is *also* given a free hand by police and other authorities.  Perhaps it isJul 21 16:43
schestowitz-pi3>>> for much the same reason, who controls the social control media in the West.Jul 21 16:43
