Hi BiggerPockets community,I have been a member for about a year and didn't realize I've possibly been missing the best part of the website - interacting with the vast community of fellow RE minded people on here.

Many will say their eventual commission is their incentive and this is simply the nature of their work, but something like a gas card would help let them know you appreciate their hard work and should be pretty universally accepted as opposed to trying to guess what restaurants they might like/stores they might shop at.

BUT, i have been the victim of two arson attacks at two different residences(stemmed from my confrontational nature, even though I was morally in the right), I have several friends/acquaintances that have been murdered by opposing gangs of their friends or relatives, even though they themselves were not gangsters.

That's not even dishonest, it's just human nature.

She seems to have a knack for tracking down information in nooks and crannies on the web.That said, at least here there's a condemnation process and one of the early steps in a property is declared a public nuisance.I would assume (but am not 100% sure) that by the nature of the title, and it having to go through the court system, as I understand it, that in most places this information would be searchable.I also commend you for that being part of your mindset and prospecting strategy. 

That's just the nature of the appraisal business, so factor that in.

The general public and local politicians have little regard for protecting this once prestine natural ressource: the storm sewer overflow issue is without a solution in sight (passing a law to allow the municipal waste water plant to dump raw residential and light industrial sewage into the lake 6 times a year would be political suicide in Europe, just saying) and the DNR recommends to limit fish consumption to once per month, just to keep your mercury intake down a bit..
