Hi, I have a home in Arizona in an area that is still developing as far as streets, shopping, etc. I need to move and I have someone who wants to rent my house for 2 years. Should I rent (after background checks, etc.)? I will have negative rental income. Or should I try to sell it? I bought the home brand new two years ago and if I sell, I will come out just about even. The only improvements I have spent money on is backyard landscaping and indoor paint. Thanks for your input! I go back and forth on what I want to do. It is 1500 square feet and has upgrades mostly in the kitchen and flooring. It is pretty nice (in my opinion).

Our series on historic, mid-century homes open to the public continues.

Continuing on the hunt for retro inspired Historic Homes you can visit I was reminded of Elvis Presley’s Graceland, located in Memphis, Tennessee. Of course I’d heard about this 14 acre white columned estate before, but I never could have imagined the lavishness (if that’s what you want to call it) in which Elvis decorated it. The American Colonial style mansion was originally built in 1939 for Grace Toot, heiress of a successful printing firm. Elvis bought the home in ‘57. He enjo

I am a homeowner and would like to improve my carpentry/construction skills. I am a teacher and have the summers off, which I would like to spend improving my house. This isnt just to save money; I really want to learn how to do it.

I once converted a garage into a sculpture studio, so I have some skills/successes (can build a wall, install new windows and doors, wiring, put in a floor) and some failures (leaking skylights). Ive also put in fences, built bookshelves and done some plumbing. Plus sculpture!

I know I could take classes at a tech school, but Im looking for other hands-on ideas where I could learn from someone.
