Although winter has been tough because of illness and weather, progress is being made. Kitchen cabinets are finished, countertop and sink installed, bathroom getting ceramic tile in the tub, and flooring has been ordered.

Our latest remodel is coming along... kitchen has been painted and ready for countertop, drywall being installed in the living room, and electric outlets being updated. Slow but steady progress being made.

Remember when thinking "a mortgage would be less or the same as my rent payment", don't forget to consider all those phantom costs that aren't included in your mortgage payment monthly, BUT when they come, must be handled IMMEDIATELY. This roofing job required an entire sheathing replacement, doubling the cost overnight...at the same time the storms came through requiring the removal of a couple of trees that had become unsafe. Could you afford tens of thousands of dollars in unexpected repairs? Fortunately, we could "weather the storm".

If you live in Springfield MO and have tree debris from the recent storms, the city is holding a free pickup after July 24. See the website posted above for more details.

Our duplex near Chestnut Xway and US-65 is getting a minor refresh currently, and will be available for a January 1 occupancy. This duplex has VERY LARGE bedrooms (11 x 14), a nice sized living room, a 1 car garage along with off street parking for 1 additional vehicle. Will do a market analysis closer to the end of the year, but we expect the rent will be $925/month. If you or a friend are interested, post a comment and let us know!
