Gentrification is happening as developers are looking for high yields.

It would be cool to see things like this succeed and grow into things like multi-use developments grow up around modern mass transit access points.

More specifically, there are new developments happening on the West and Northwest sides of the broader Houston area (Tomball, Cypress, Katy), and in general, homes are selling in the $250-350k range.

I recently moved from Miami to Orlando to work as a Business Development Manager for Innovative Realty and I quickly discovered the Orlando market is completely different from what I'm used to in Miami.

Also, Rich Dad Poor Dad is a classic and was beneficial to me in developing the right mindset to start investing.

I also heard the property managers in that area aren't too great, so I'm managing it myself for now, until i develop relationships with good property managers. 

For me, it was capitalizing on what I'm good at and I've found my niche in development/land investing which go hand-in-hand. 

The issue is, I believe in Tullahoma, the cost to develop land (road, electrical, plumping, etc) will be more expensive than the total revenue from the lots.

We knew we wanted to investment in Puget Sound waterfront and my wife spent hours on Google Maps and driving around to develop a list of cold call applicants.

When I was breaking into the web developer industry, there was plenty of free meetups that I could attend to network with other like minded individuals.
