They are older units, but my crew will bring them up to decent shape over the next month (unless someone else wants the "honey-do" list at a profit) Joan Russel, my short-lived previous manager, talked me out of doing this, saying her crew would do it.

@Shannon Collins great, I will pass on the information

@John Collins Well, that’s the whole reason to get the property on the mls....so all the agents with buyers will show your property to them.

@Leon Collins it should be

@John Collins I can't tell what part of Texas you are in but in Fort Worth the county has an actual drop of for this type of thing.  

We are all bringing $ to the table (collectively $130k) 45/45/10 splitOur goal is to purchase 2-20 acres subdivide into 1acre residential lots and build spec homes.We've looked at 20 acres ($200k) in Terrell, Kaufman, County, TX and 6 acres ($160k) in Princeton, Collin County, TX.

I’m currently renting close to work and very happy about it so buying a primary residence is not a priority plus price point in Denver is too high given my budget.For that reason, I’ve been exploring the different options including Denver metro, Longmont, Boulder, Fort Collins and finally Colorado Springs which seems to be a great place to start investing locally.

@Simon Collins, yes reverse exchanges are another option for investors conducting an exchange.

Hi @Ryan Collins, and congrats on taking positive steps toward starting your REI journey!

@Joan-Marie PaganProperty 1: I used my savings.
