The house is huge (5BR, 5BA, 2 kitchens) and I'm only asking $3.9 per square foot, but as a former church, and being in downtown Fulton, NY (nice place but obscure) it is a hard sell.

I'd love to be able to spend more time with my family and volunteering at my church.

We plan on living in the house for 2-3 years while we work at a loca church.

I used to love location scouting for my little fitness business (basically looking for gyms/church rooms to rent to hold classes).

I am doing the deal with my father in law, an artist, who will live in the top of the building (the building is zoned live/work); the bottom half is rented by a church, a long-time tenant.

We talked about developing community leaders the same way you would ask someone to step up in a church or a business.

If you want money people, you are networking in the wrong places with RE types, they know the game, what you need are private investors that you can inform, so long as you have the necessay knowledge.Civic organizations, the Red Cross, Literacy Council, Hospital Volunteers, Friends of the Library, Church groups, etc. are things the retirees get involved with doing community service.

For lenders, we try to keep separation of church and state, so if you are looking for a lending attorney, that would not necessarily be the same person.

As a native from Orlando, that building sounds like it's probably Church St Station?
