Do you use automatic rent increases for leases over 24 months?  I do now (since I learned the hard way in Memphis).

Can you get out of a bad real estate situation and still make real estate work for you?  @Dean Harris and I believe you can if you have the right help.

I get most of my Memphis news from the Daily Memphian and some from the Memphis Business Journal.  If I were only investing in one of those, I'd subscribe to the Daily Memphian. 

There are other options out there, too, like Memphis Magazine, but, in my experience, you can get 99% of the Memphis news just by reading the headlines of the Daily Memphian each morning.

If you're interested in Memphis and haven't seen this, you need to learn more about it. 

From the Wall Street Journal...

"The plant in Mississippi’s Marshall County, south of Memphis, Tenn., will be the nation’s largest dedicated to batteries for commercial vehicles, with initial output projected to be enough batteries annually to power more than 40,000 medium- and heavy-duty trucks."
