Welcome neighbor!

Dig in here, its a great group of folks.

We need a munching popcorn icon....

I am following along enjoying the unfolding story.

@Brian Harris -- Welcome to BP.  Jump right in.

Welcome to the area @Paul Abrilla!

Mobile, AL seems like a dynamic market as the city continues to grow.

@Justin Fox  Good deal.  Good luck with the rehab.

I see you are in Vidor.  I know some Murphey's from Vidor.

@Justin Fox Would there be a way to use half brick and mortar to handle the electrical run?

Not sure which would be more work, but jack hammering sounds like a lot of work 

Thank you @Ayodeji Kuponiyi

I binge listened to all the BiggerPocket podcasts...  I am continuing to put in the time.

Thanks @Todd Wetzelberger  Great information to have.

@Todd Wetzelberger - Would love to get your thoughts on risk mitigation insurance-wise in NOLA. As an investor-to-be in the land between NOLA and Mobile, I have heard the stories about the struggles with the insurance companies following Katrina -- I would assume that the pattern would continue in future events.

How would one factor that risk into the investment strategy/planning? Do you count on a complete write off every 20 years? Anyway to mitigate the insurance issue?

@Richard Myers We are in the same boat.  I have used Lynn in the past for house looking (for a residence) so I have an existing relationship with her.

Does not hurt to ask.

...since we are at the same point, we should definitely get together for some coffee.
