Silly question: When small pics are posted here, any way on the site to enlarge them to see more details? Thanks

Question Would you use the PVC as an outside cover, and pull the PEX through the PVC? Just curious.

Don't just visit. Tour the area, take a day and drive. A number of great changes to the metro area! Look at Ames as well, both markets very hot (from what I hear from locals in the know). Des Moines is a great Midwest city to live. Welcome back to the Iowa!

Hire a Iowa attorney that knows R/E. Cheap insurance policy, in my opinion.

One of the posters had a great comment: As the market falls, people wait for a further drip. I call it the "Funnel Effect".

If you go Section 8, I would strongly suggest quarterly inspections. The wear and tear is generally more with Section 8. One of my Section 8 tenants, has carpet runners in the heavy traffic areas. She acts like it's her house. Super clean home. So not all Section 8 tenants are rough on properties.

Had dead bats one time. I have to rid the food source -- bat cadavers It's messy problem.

Just e-mail Equifax --- LOL

QBO (Quickbooks on Line), decided their program was too cheap (my words). It's a good program, compared to desktop for rentals. They have increased their annual fee --- big time (by 50%)!

The market maybe cooling a tad on the Midwest, but still strong. If rates move up, then hold on baby! Old enough to remember, October 1979!
