Codes and Credit and Changes, Oh My!
Unsure of local building codes? Considering taking out a line of credit? Wondering about upcoming Charles River meeting changes? This meeting covered all that and more!
Ting Wong from Eastern Bank spoke to us about and took questions on opening a line of credit. A line of credit provides flexibility that a regular business loan doesn’t. Need to manage cash flow? Buy maintenance inventory? Pay for sudden property damage? A line of credit may just be what you're looking for. Also, some of our members talked about their experiences with lines of credit.
We were also very excited to welcome Bill Forte, Inspector of Buildings and Waltham Superintendent of Public Buildings, to dive into building codes. He addressed: updates to building codes, what he looks for when he inspects a building, tips on how to stay up to code, and common problems he sees and how landlords can prevent or remedy them.
The evening started with networking and then we moved on to opening remarks and the business update. Finally we shifted our focus to Bill Forte and Ting Wong.
