Hello @Oscar Jacome .  

Get ready!  It is amazing.  I listened to the audiobook.  The narrator added some flavor.

Great meeting everyone!  As always, looking forward to the next one.

As I mentioned, here are the books I recommended at the meeting (in order or my highest recommendation).  Most of these are all recommended here at BP in one place or another as well:

4 HOUR WORK WEEK

LOOPHOLES OF REAL ESTATE

https://www.amazon.com/Loopholes-Real-Estate-Succe...

MULTI FAMILY MILLIONS

https://www.amazon.com/Multi-Family-Millions-Repos...

THINK AND GROW RICH

https://www.amazon.com/Think-Grow-Rich-Publication...

THE ABCS OF REAL ESTATE INVESTING

https://www.amazon.com/Rich-Dad-Advisors-Investing...

Enjoy!

Hello @Cody Harris !  

Welcome neighbor! 

There are lots of great people in the community in our area.

I highly recommend the monthly coffee meeting this Saturday in Dalray sponsored by @Jon Huber .  

Drop me a line.  I am happy to get together with you for coffee or lunch.

Hello @Michelle Lutz .  

2 issues:

1.  Land development is complicated and expensive.  There is plenty of risk.

2.  I am not a fan of retail space (see AMAZON.COM).

Personally, if you think $400k is a good offer for the real value of the land, then I would prefer to take the capital and re-invest it into something I know better.

I grew up in this neighborhood and probably delivered pizza to this house 30 yrs ago!

Hello @Ryan Peach .  

I won't comment on the impact on rents, but curb appeal can go a long way in helping a post-purchase appraisal if you are looking to refi and pull some cash back out.

Hello @Bernard Chouinard .  

Just say you drove/walked/unicycled/drone flyby and saw their property.  It is in a neighborhood you have identified as an area you would like to invest in.  Etc.
