Buying a property in California leads to two-inch thick binder of paperwork you have to sign (in fairness, in places like Ohio, the buying process is pretty easy).

Snow, meanwhile, is minimal—the city gets an average of an inch or two of snow per year.

Like in Jackson MS with their yazoo clay that clay can make a house move 6 inches if drainage is not done properly around the house etc.   

**Basement Water Damage:** The walls in the basement are wet up to 15 inches, and it appears that water is seeping in from the ground.3.

I know every inch of this county, and would share my informal opinion on anything you stumble across.

On very heavy rain days we always get a lot of calls due to some basements flooding.It's just the nature of the beast and nothing major.Maintenance pumps out the inch or so of water fairly easily and quickly.Property management walks (For free) the property yearly before the lease renewal.We had push back on charging $250 for a 2 x yearly Property Condition Report through Inspectify but are now having a "click out" option so we can't be blamed in the future for deferred maintenance.It's incredible the lengths that we need to go through to protect the company from such instances.With that said, we could have done a better job with preventative maintenance here.Investors reading, "Yes" we do our best to cover absolutely all angles as your eyes and ears, heart and soul on the ground.

There are many things you can do every day to get one inch/mile better. 

The 1 item I have found of factual base, which is very legitimate, is the note that prices going up by yards, rents up by feet and incomes by inches, highlighting a growing disparity gap.

:You ever try to explain to a non-US woodworker why half of 3/8ths of an inch is 3/16ths of an inch, and have him insist on trying to measure out 3/8 in. 

The numbers look good until your AC unit gets destroyed for copper or they remove every inch of pipe in the house.
