Beware Of Self Employment
Posted on | July 30, 2008 | No Comments
I just had to use the title I did. I love it. I was reading over my last entry in the blog before starting on this one and saw one of the Google ads titled “Beware Of Self Employment”. Now, that’s some darn good advice.
I’m back to make one of my rare appearances on the blog. I’ve been on the road doing a “clean up” for one of our companies. They really impressed us with their offer and we really had to take the work just to see why the offer was so good. Now we know.
I had eighty-four properties to inspect and it has taken three days but I finally finished and boy, was it an eye opener. Even though we’ve been in this business for a pretty long time, I was flabbergasted with what I saw those three days.
With only a few exceptions, all of the properties inspected had a value of at least one million dollars! If I was holding that portfolio of properties I don’t think I would be able to sleep too good at night. It didn’t take long to figure out why we were being paid so well.
Some of these properties had private guards on duty; most had active electronic security in place and all of them took much more time to inspect than the normal run-of-the-mill properties we usually do. In fact, this was the first time we’ve been able to report that the pool is in the house.  Yep, in the house. Most of these places were more like palaces than single family residences.
It was fun and the money’s in the bank. We’re kind of hoping we’ll be asked to do it again. I’ll be around for a few days and if you’re looking for e-mail from me, you’ll probably get it before the end of the week.
