Hi Everyone,

I am currently working on my business plan and would like to know where I could go to research the status of the market? Does the planning department in the city show what areas are up and coming? Where could I find facts about an area's history (and future)? Or is that something that is unavailable?

@Shvonne C. Good Morning,

You described it just as I experienced it. I am disappointed to say the least because I was really excited about having a mentor. I want avoid making huge mistakes, but I know that this forum, podcast and meet up events should guide me in the right direction.

I am a person that does due diligence. I really appreciate it Karen...

My question is, have anyone heard of this company? I have done some research and I am finding mixed reviews. This idea of a one stop shop is appealing, but I don’t want to put myself in a hole falling for a gimmick.

Please help …

Thank you all for the warm greetings and encouraging words....
