In Houston, particularly in the boom years, a lot of what was built was in the unincorporated parts of Harris, Fort Bend or some other county.

I wasn't the best in best and final, but the broker told me the seller opted to go for a portfolio buyer even though the individual offers they had summed to more than the portfolio offer.In many ways this smells to me the same way it did in 2000 during the dotcom boom and again in 2005 with liars loans.  

-He is located in Tampa's booming/affordable housing market.I am located in New York City and are an aspiring Real Estate investor. 

@Steven DAmbraLike Henri pointed out - Google "COUNTY tax assessor" or "COUNTY tax collector" for the property you're interested in.

I began to expand rapidly before this boom in CO real estate in 2016 / 2017.Now I am expanding the team of professionals that I work with, my rentals and the cities I am investing in. 

But that's as much fear of the boom and bust nature of FL as anything.But @Alysa Phalen does not need to purchase another apartment building in CO to satisfy 1031.

I have been here for 5 years and in just that short time have seen Oceanside BOOM!

Obviously Lacy Lakeview isn't exactly booming but there is industry in the area (not counting L3 and I'm not really wanting to lease to TSTC students unless they have a family) but I have the opportunity to invest in some homes there.

I concede it bothers me that’s where property is at in my neighborhood but it’s either buy now before the boom or probably not at all.

There is just a little less room for error when dealing with a smaller park as you don't have as many lot to absorb a vacancy or an increase in water usage(even if you can collect)..or some repairs to do etc.Good job on negotiating them down so far...for me i will still have to go lower and look something like this....200*18*12*.5/.1=216k purchase priceI prefer to pay lower than this based on a smaller park and limited upside potential based on your observation of market lot rents.
