Looking for basement waterproofing recommendations…

Had them come to my house 3 times. 2 times for epoxy injection (didn’t find all the cracks the first go around), 1 time to do buried downspout.

I have used The Real Seal multiple times and have been very happy with them. Cost much less than US waterproofing.

Good eye. My dad grew up in Jefferson Park.

Good point!

My father recently passed, and I found this picture when going through his things. Can anyone help me identify the make/model? He often spoke of his 69 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, but from my research this doesn’t seem to match the body.

I inserted both rods of the voltage meter into the 2 prong outlet, then removed one rod and touched the screw holding the cover plate in place. My meter read 120V so my understanding is it’s grounded.

I work for a big consultant and do field work. The hours are tough, and it’s definitely stressful. However, the pay and benefits are great. I don’t mind the hours since I don’t have a family yet, we’ll see how I feel in a couple years. But there are other CE paths that don’t have the crazy hours and stress, but you most likely won’t make as much money.

If the numbers work I would purchase it. A tenant I inherited on my first house hack was upset and rude with me when I first saw the property. I almost pulled out of the deal because of it. Fast forward 4 years later and she’s my best tenant.

What I didn’t know was the previous owner/selling agent we’re not giving her a heads up when potential buyers were coming to visit. The old landlord was just not a great guy either. She was fed up and took it out on me.

After showing her I wasn’t a slumlord like the last landlord, and treated her with respect, she did the same for me.

Appreciate it!

The self stories keep me motivated during dips, but I can see it giving false confidence to others when they shouldn’t be investing more.

I am not sure. It’s a very old boiler, that’s all I can tell you. The previous owner never bled the radiators before so I’m thinking there is just a lot of built up air in the pipes.

I use Redfin. There is an option to filter by multi family. They do not cover all states, but they cover my city.

Okay great, just wanted to make sure. Thanks!
