Wyoming is building a nuclear power plant in a town of 2,400. https://energycommunities.gov/terrapower-nuclear-plant-wyomi...Cheyenne is under consideration for a company that will produce portable nuclear power plants the size of a semi that can power 750 homes for five years. https://cowboystatedaily.com/2024/03/15/wyoming-a-finalist-f...Wheatland, Wyoming (population 2,500) recently announced a rare earth mine that could possibly turn Wyoming into the largest producer of rare minerals in the world, knocking China out of the running. https://americanrareearths.com.au/cowboy-state-daily-rare-ea...There are opportunities around the country to get ahead of growth.

Just as you wouldn’t give a child a book on nuclear physics and expect him to read it, start your real estate education (of which you have a fair amount already) close to home.

And hoping to find new tenants and resume my CF.

There are specific cities/areas that seem more promising than others (such as Orlando, Jacksonville in FL, and Midland/Odessa, College Station in TX) but I'm finding it hard to pick one market to then resume my search for the right neighborhood and specific property.

Would like to broaden my resume and work with buying and selling investor homes in my area.

Believe me, I cringe when I call myself a broker sometimes.Think you need to present a resume and get a POF ready. 

To fix this, the sponsor / capital raiser can do one of three things: - Capital call existing investors (who hate this and it is often perceived as a black mark on a sponsor's track record)- Let the bank foreclose, wiping out essentially all equity (obviously, this is also not a great resume builder)- Raise exceedingly expensive second position debt at a 12-15% interest rate.

As elections get closer we will likely see consumer confidence start to become more uncertain due to the political climate and then resume again after elections are finalized.ibuyers and hedge funds are also ramping up acquisitions which is further pushing demand and lack of affordability.If/when the Feds do lower rates we will see a temporary improvement in affordability, however we do expect that small window to close quickly as lower rates will bring a lot of pent up demand back into the market which will push home values higher and cause affordability to worsen.With all factors considered here in the local Las Vegas and Henderson market we are encouraging buyers to buy sooner rather than later while they can get lower prices and seller concessions and then if needed refi later when rates come down and they have more equity.

But a commuter trades some housing expense for the home and instead have $400 up in commute costs (plus wear & tear on vehicle and lost time, say 2 hours each way - pre COVID - better than 2 hours until normal commute resumes). 

Impressive resume and background my friend.
