The reason I liked it so much it's the largest land mass county in the United States.

@Josh Silvester As far as the rural market goes I’m in a fairly rural area, largest town has 8000 people and several smaller towns with under 3000.

From your post it sounds like a great software to use that integrates most of the office functions a real estate investor needs.

These updates included essential repairs and improvements to enhance the property's appeal and functionality.

It's your largest potential expense aside from the house collapsing.

It is, by far, the largest casino near Charlotte or in the region, and has been drawing thousands of workers from out of town pushing rent prices, and investment opportunity very high.
