@Account Closed If they are so far away, may I ask how this person became a mentor? Austin might be worth a look re: containers. I used to live there and they are fairly open to progressive ideas. 

@Trudy Pachon Es una buena actitud. Si vives en Mexico, aprendas español! Your life will be so much easier and opportunities will appear as a result. The point is that you will be making fairly passive revenue and that is the key to success. I will be testing out the shipping container project and pods inside (like Japanese capsule hotels). I appreciate the support :)

@Account Closed Where are you planning on building your shipping container home? Where does your mentor do business? Is there any chance you could connect me to them? I am aware of the "mordita" from the police/cartels but obviously any guidance would help me. Thanks. 

@Trudy Pachon Oaxaca sounds amazing. Como va tu español? So you are renovating a place and then renting it out? How are the short term regulations down there? 

@Troy Sheets It is very complex and depends if you want to own as an individual or business. I am exploring both and learning a tremendous amount including some hacks. Let me get to launch and I can share more on my experiences to help you succeed in Mexico. 

@Account Closed We should connect. I met the guys at Quartyard about 2 years ago. I just emailed you. Looking forward to talking. 

@Trudy Pachon Sounds amazing! What attracted you to Oaxaca? I heard that is the home of mezcal right? Yes, snail pace is a good way of describing things in Baja, California as well. Lots of bureaucracy and much less capitalist than the US (which is a good and bad thing). 

@Troy Sheets Thanks. The Qwerky website link is in my bio if you want to follow. If you come across any fun articles, let me know. 

@Troy Sheets Beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Have you constructed any of your own shipping container projects?  

@Bruce Lynn Thanks for sharing those links. Very useful. Really surprised that Dallas has embraced shipping container projects. Re: San Diego - not a progressive city, too long to get projects like this approved and cost of real estate way too high. Tijuana is much more progressive, cheap real estate and a faster growing market. People are talking about Tijuana being San Diego's next hot suburb. Ownership is easy if you know how.
