Hey guys, wondering what the locals think will be the impact of this from, here is the article from IBJ:September 6, 2016Hayleigh ColomboCarmel-based for-profit college operator ITT Educational Services Inc. announced Tuesday morning that it will permanently “discontinue academic operations” at all ITT Technical Institutes campuses.The company has already eliminated the “vast majority” of its 8,000 employees and canceled the fall academic quarter, which had been scheduled to begin this month, according to a statement released Tuesday morning.ITT Educational operates more than 130 ITT Technical Institute campuses in 38 states.ITT Tech announced a week ago it would stop enrolling students, and an Indianapolis charter school run by the companyhas also shut down.The move follows years of scrutiny by the federal education department over its recruiting methods and students’ educational performance, and recent actions that made itineligible to accept new studentswho relied on student loans.In its statement Tuesday morning, ITT called the federal sanctions “inappropriate and unconstitutional.""

I have studied brokerage behind two top brokers in the industry since entering and am currently partnered with one.Before brokerage, I worked for two unique gentlemen in Los Angeles who own bars, restaurants, hotels, movie/tv production groups and promoting groups.

Christian Cascone thank you for the restaurant recommendation.

Find a poor/questionable tenant with limit options and they'll sell the lease because they're getting shut out of the reasonably priced properties by better applicants. 

Other things to look for in either scenario, but potentially even more so for flipping, are things like the walkability of the area (can people walk to things like bars, restaurants, coffee, school, is it very hilly or is it a pleasant stroll), ratio of owner/occupants to renters in the area (people like to buy where everyone else buys, not in high rental areas), street noise (people like to have easy access to the highway, not be underneath it), etc.Of course, while internet research is hugely beneficial, a great way to know if a property is a good bet is to visit it and tour the town yourself.

I've lived and presently live where I can hear a train, but at night my brain seems to shut it out, knowing that it's not a threat, so I don't hear it and don't wake up from it. 

I work a full-time job in the restaurant industry, which I would love to get away from because I would like to spend more time at home.

@Chris Morey,It's not that you're shutting him out - in fact, invite him to participate.If he chooses not to participate, then it's his choice and not your fault.

They keep trying to shut me up~!
