Now that Trump won the election, I wanted to get a discussion going about what potential impact this could have on towns along the Rio Grande Valley like McAllen, and Brownsville, Texas.The population growth in these towns has been great over the years making it a worthwhile investment.

It's failed in grand fashion every time, for good reasons but hey feel free. 

If you are taking about dropping a million cash into properties each year, then yes you are going to want to have some type of reasonable corporate structure, but if you're talking about 25% down 100 grand properties with bank notes, all you really need is some decent insurance.

But I'm confused/curious as to why this Electrical Contr is so willing to burn bridges over couple of grand, is he just stupid?

  $150,000 is not a lot of money in the grand scheme of Real Estate investing.

I also have a realtor looking for short term rentals at Grand Lake, Oklahoma, where I have my vacation home, and I have a realtor friend licensed in Missouri and Arkansas whom I'm going to contact to look in Joplin, Missouri and Bella Vista, Arkansas.

Purchase price: $515,000 My vacation home on Grand Lake What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

A grand won't kill me, but if it does turn out to be THE thing of the future, then maybe it will turn out ok.
