well, wish me luck. [View all]

contractor scheduled to arrive today to start work on a stalled rehab of one of my rentals.
this apt has been empty for TWO YEARS. the other has been empty for a year, but at least it's done and on the market.

i cant believe how hard it has been to find a contractor. such a drawn out process, so much bullshit, while i sit here and bleed money.
i'm a total mess at this point. both my physical and mental health have been in the shitter. i've lost all faith in my ability to handle anything. feel like i've aged a decade in these 2 yrs.

but i'll have to buck up for a couple weeks at least.
i got a good price, so that helps, even if there are overruns. and it will still be a process to find tenants. both are 4 br, and the market for that is mostly in subsidized housing. when we're done, i'll start the process of signing up. from the nibbles i've had so far on the 1st flr, i will have my pick.

i'm just hoping that getting the work done lifts enough of this weight that i can find my mojo again.
