    Realtors are like mechanics, ones you know or get a good referral are fine, its when you need to look for one blind that they can really fuck you over.

    Check out St. Augustine - I know of a few golf courses nearby but dunno if they're any good as I don't golf. Plenty of residential/condo's. Our company has a Condo here that I stayed at for a week, was pretty nice. Hard to beat NE FL weather for those months either...

    Steep, but probably worth it with both sulfur and hard water. How long have you had it and would you repurchase?

    So new house has well water, and it has a healthy rotten egg smell, so definitely have sulfur gas. I think my area has hard water too. As far as I know the house has no treatment or filtration system. My quick GoogleFu says I should go with a full spectrum system. What have you well guys gone with?

    I've seen them get deliveries from trucks with nothing but chinese written on them, but I'm sure its also area dependent. restaurants in urban centers are more likely to have an asian specific distributor near them while some in the more rural areas will have to rely on the big boys like sysco...

    Grim Dawn

    Farming strategy will probably vary depending on what build and gear you're looking for, as the skeleton key dungeons are a major source of static drops, and then there's monster infrequents that drop from specific trash. So pick a build, see where the gear can drop, and go from there. If you...

    A little over a week later and I saw a spike in people viewing the property on zillow, got a bunch of viewings this week, and signed a contract for full asking price yesterday.

    Sysco is just the distributor though. I don't know what percentage they get imported as I don't deal with imports much but I'd be shocked if they didn't get stuff from China.

    And after everything else everyone said, you seeds may still not grow because the pH of your soil may be fucked and you might have to put down lime. So yeah, get a lawn care company in and be done with it.

    They did cut supply, the question is did they wait to long and did they cut it enough? They should have seen the drop in demand coming with half the world going into quarantine.

    NJ practically made the decision for us. We wanted to expand and add a line on the adjacent property which was a super fund site almost done being remediated. They wanted us to pay a million dollars for an acre of empty dirt. We found a 50k square foot building and 13 acres for 750k in FL. Guess...

    This x's 100. Our food processing facility in NJ does mostly food service for small/medium restaurants, mom and pops, etc. Our orders literally nose dived in a 2 week period.

    I put my house up for sale mid march and have received very little interest in it. But with all things housing, that can be a combination of location, market, pricing, etc. This is in South Jersey for reference. My realtor commented that's it's been crickets pretty much across the board.
