re: Question about realtors "rules" or ethics
Posted by T-Jon on 4/9/26 at 12:03 am to deuceiswild
So the buyer didn’t forfeit the escrow after backing out because it was within the 10 day grace period?
Maybe I misread, but that would mean your daughter had the property inspected (which is odd for a seller), obtained the report, made the repairs, and then had the buyer back out all in a 10 day period from the signed offer.
This is the only part of your issue that makes sense to me, but it could just be me.
Also, why are you stuck on some advice the buyer’s agent gave their client. That’s part of their job. It would be unethical if they didn’t do it. You can’t control if that advice is good or bad without testing the limits of your own ethics. The questionable action of the buyers agent is allowing the seller to hire the inspector.

I bought USO puts yesterday afternoon and sold them this morning. Didn’t really expect the turnaround to be in 12 hours, but it’s nice to get lucky every now and then. Wish I would’ve bought more.
re: What route do I go with real estate investing?

If you’re looking for cash flow, you might look into buying $30k to $80k houses and turning them into hud rentals. Pain in the arse dealing with the clientele, but the checks don’t bounce. I personally want to build a trailer park, or 6.
I’m a fan of free trees. The 18 at my house mostly came from multiple Arbor Days. 3 of my five live oaks were saplings that I literally pulled out of the ground at my old house and planted them in my new yard. They all survived, and the tallest is now 14’ high after 6 years. It’s almost as tall as the 8’ live oaks that my builder planted around the same time. None of my live oaks like the poor draining heavy clay in my yard, but most of them are slowly becoming landscape features. Live oaks grow much faster in sandy soil. The red maple sapling I planted 5 years ago is 20’ tall and looks great. Pecan trees and elms are doing great as well.

It’s sort of a gimmick. It’s technically a higher standard of structural design, which is good. Your Insurace will be cheaper, which is also good. You have another inspector reviewing the construction, which can be good. You will pay for it, which is arguably worth it.
It’s definitely not better than hiring a structural engineer (in conjunction with an architect) to design and inspect the construction of your house. However, your stupid insurance company will probably give you lower rates for the gimmick than for a truly professional design.

Roundup use to be glyphosate before class action lawyers “convinced” them to change the formula to something that doesn’t work as well as glyphosate. Generic glyphosate still works great with a surfactant. Just wear gloves when you mix it and don’t spray it in your mouth.

I didn’t see any results from liquid aeration.
Wait until your grass is actively growing to sand level.

I just installed a minka air xtreme h20 after a Home Depot fan crapped out after 2.5 years.
I was impressed with the quality of the minka, but it was over $800 with the light kit. Hopefully a buy once, cry once item

Looks interesting. What site(s) do you use to select the firms you apply to?
Looks interesting. It doesn’t appear to be as shade tolerant as zeon though, but handles humidity better.
My soil tests recommend 16-4-8 with 3 spring/summer applications
I use my Roth as you described. Its ideal for option income and short term gains

If I had to buy long options on one of those stocks with a far out expiry, I would pick NVDA and buy way out of the money calls with a 6 month expiry, then stagger selling them depending on how they do over 5 months or so. Time (theta) will not be your friend.
re: Dwarf Mondo or ???

I couldn’t get dwarf mondo to spread between pavers, so I replaced it with zoysia. Maybe try fertilizer before replacing it

Buy QQQi. Gives you exposure to selling calls on the stocks you listed, and it won’t expire worthless.
It’s up to $97 premarket. Probably good enough for a night out.
Did the dead leaves fall off the tree, or did they stay? Typically if they fall off, the tree is still alive. They are most likely fine, as others have said. Give them some time.
re: LSU Soil Test Results

I use these soil tests:
Soilkit.com
They are more expensive, but they take your lawn area from google earth and tell you exactly what fertilizer to buy and when to apply it. The founded is one of the Woerners.

Check the wiring first if you haven’t already. You could have accidentally damaged it.

I was thinking the same thing. I unfortunately have limits on unit price when selling options.
