Place needs work? Find a nice couple that you can let live in the property rent free in exchange for a maintenance and repair schedule. Hire a management company to rent it out.

Just buy it, tweak it a little, raise the sales price to make a small profit and wait for the sale.
In keeping with the conversation over time theme: Rentals! that's the ticket for BIG MONEY! Why, here's a nice Houston unit one could probably get for not too much - just back up the truck and invest!

How can anyone live like this? (pics)

And yet it was edited and the reason was "not public info". What radio are you listening to? The shortwave from the mother country?

We must both be boobs then. Don't we make quite a pair?
