Some others around where you'll be are Heavy Riff (Dogtown), Perennial (Patch), and Modern Brewery. 4 Hands downtown is also really great.Eat: BBQ, Pizza, Burgers, Italian, chicken, St.

Older homes may have clay or cast iron...might not need to be done right away but great leverage point.Trees ...have someone come out for estimate to trim the trees.

Ironic that the house My dad and I live in, we are renting out the basement next month to a tenant to generate some extra income he can put towards the mortgage (Currently underwater, got f*cked by housing bubble, literally purchased house 2 years before crash) so this will indirectly give me some land lording under my belt.I did find a spot in Frederick MD that had the basement already renovated to appeal to a In-suite rental ( separate entrance and full bathroom) i could probably install a small stove and add a full refrigerator to a property like that.Looks like a single family home will definitely be my first buy

Ironically, I had made about the same amount by actually predicting the crash and shorting the market at the top.

Right by the police station fernades steak house in iron bound.  

If you can get it all ironed out you can get some pretty good deals.

Ironically, my partner and I find off market deals, with partners, add-value and so on... what we found is that you can RUN towards wealth creation when you're working with the right people, with the right deals in real estate.
