I suspect the selling of the 3k information package is a pretty heavy revenue generator for them and very clever indeed... you take undercapitalized folks that want to get going and they will risk it.. just like folks that put the big guru packages of 20 to 40k on their credit cards with the hopes and dreams that there is some magic training that will create income so they don't have to work anymore ( at least W 2 work)… So I was just asking that other lady if she actually funded.. or if she put up the 3k and lost it.. one of the toughest things to do in the industry and its kind of like how gambling casinos are set up.1. take a rookie and that's who is going to be attracted to this scheme of no money down ( which of course it is not)2. set the bar so high that most rookies simply cant find a deal that actually works in todays competitive environmentand there you have it you have 3k in your pocket to do turn downs and to send out materials that are long ago paid for and there is nothing new in real estate .. there can be nothing they are sending out in their materials that is not known to the RE community and talked about daily on a site like BP... but again if someone wants to pay  3k for their materials that OK in my mind.. its just the way these companies package this stuff that goes against most of us that have been hard money lenders or are HML ers business practices.. and I get where they are coming from.. the begineer is by far the highest risk borrower.. and in todays world if you have 10% to put down most HML will fund you if you have a good deal and for nothing up front.. they will help you underwrite it since it their money.. and the rates will be substantially less. shop around and see..then lastly if someone does not have 10% in cash and good amount of reserves to go into fix and flip is highly risky its highly risky to start any business undercapitalized.. 

The race track and casino are there.  

Also they are about to open that new casino which will create even more job opportunities in the area.  

I go to Niagar Falls NY for a casino and bar night every year and let me tell you - it is disgusting and vacant.Witness at least 1 or 2 drug deasla  year.

*Also, doesn't help that the casino industry there has some lobbyists to make sure their market share is protected. 

(its a little hot here, like death valley hot... but the river and casinos are a big draw for the snow bird population and tourism is crazy here.

But DR Horton is building these in the heartland complex NE of aliante casino.

Just wanted to say 27.5 vs 3927.5 = Residential: Apartments and Rental Homes. 39 years = Commercial buildings: ex. hotels, retail, warehouses, motels, casinos, restaurants, and others.

New casino is breaking ground.

And only buy and hold vacation/short-term rentals specifically.Commercial property is also profitable… depending on location.I personally was out there gathering information and documents regarding raw Oceanfront property (with permits in place for Hotel Casino and Resort), Acreage for agriculture development (Puerto Rico is blessed with very Fertile Soil), some shopping centers in urban areas and 2 private islands that a broker wants me to help him market here in the States.So HMU anyone that would like more info about Puerto Rico.
