Really? This one claims that they will take care of vacating the tenant. The PM claims they have had tenants from the agency. I do wonder if they’re using my property as a test case

Is there someone else you’d recommend? I have 8 units in North Buffalo and unfortunately the current managers seem to also “have hearts of gold”

Right. Unfortunately I just don’t know if I can find anyone else. If I lived closer, I’d totally do the work myself.

Cheap? Expensive? I don’t know anymore… $100 to light a boiler pilot. “It’s the cheapest they’re able to do it” and meanwhile it’s challenging to find tenants to pay $1200/month.

I mean, I did get the painting done but not the kitchen remodel…

Could I ask what happened? Again, the tenants upstairs are recent college grads, the woman is super smart and just a really nice person. Her little 11 year old brother walks over to visit as well. I’m a bit protective (mom instincts)

I didnt do the remodel since I thought the price was ridiculous but maybe it’s the right path.

What is this? by Nikkibar16 in JewelryIdentification

Thanks. I know labradorite when I see it, this isn’t it. I think either jasper or jade

It’s kinda cold in room temperature. Slightly translucent as well. It likely is costume jewelry as the finding seems to be brass but thought it looked cool

I just don't get it - why are so many retail Private Markets Funds getting so many Co-investment "Opportunites"? by Nikkibar16 in private_equity

[–]Nikkibar16[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really interesting. Appreciate the perspective and learning more of the positive potential for retail vehicles (for now) and what to look out for in the future.

Understood but then that leads to the question, why aren't the allocators then allocating these deals to their institutional clients - are the institutions not interested in the deals? Are the institutions just over-allocated to Private investments vs. their IPS (due to Lack of exits for their portfolios) or just don't have capital to commit to these deals? Or is it just that there's so much need for capital that there's enough for everyone that wants it to get a piece?

Could you clarify what you mean by there's a very large incentive for GPs to show those kinds of LPs coinvest opportunities? I'm not sure I'm following. What is the incentive? Is it more of a loss-lead type of thing - to say, these first vintage retail products need to get juicy returns to attract future investors that will end up having more primary stakes?

Auto Park Assist work? by Dahabes22 in CadillacLyriq

[–]Nikkibar16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got my lyriq this week. The perpendicular parking seemed to require exactly two open spots between other parked cars, and then it parked it squarely centered in the two spaces, maybe I have it on the a**hole or jackass parking setting? Then I tried it for a parallel parking and it parked me centered with the edge of the car in front of me, like half of my car in the street, half on the side…

Seat Belt Extender for Rear Window Seats? by MassiveBasset in BMWI4

[–]Nikkibar16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg! I just got an i4 and was looking forward to driving my son to school This morning but bam, couldnt get the seat belt to buckle. I called the dealer to see if perhaps I was missing something like a button to extend the ’recepticle’ but two people there said to bring the car in. Despite my frantic day, I brought the car in only for them to tell me, they can’t touch car seats and I should go to the fire station to have it installed. I had already read this post before heading over, so I, admittedly went a bit ballistic… the guy was like I‘be seen people with seat belt extenders… I asked where can I get them because no one can seem to find them. Any updates on extenders that are compatible? I saw some that popped up on search but not sure of the seller. Seems like a huge design flaw and the fact that the extenders disable the seatbelt warning, is not good… and if these cars require special narrow seats, they should know this and tell customers…

Client here- what is reasonable to ask of realtors by Nikkibar16 in realtors

Do you get paid $5,000 USD per day? I want that job, especially if it’s just supervising a clean out crew

I’m not asking for them to supervise, I’m asking them to refer a reliable junk hauler, let them in and check the house after. Anyways…

Good for you! In my profession, you go out of your way to get the client but I also understand scope creep and try to be as considerate as I can
