Yardi Matrix has predicted we will also be the #1 rental growth market in the nation in 2017 with 10% year-on-year growth, and 8.5% growth next year.For some anecdotes, in the past couple months I've met a handful of clients who are all young couples that are professionals in their late 20's & early 30's, and are leaving the uber-expensive Bay Area and are looking to settle down here in Sacramento where housing is more affordable.Sacramento offers enough of a "big city feel" for Bay Area residents and has several colleges, major sports teams, an international airport, etc.

There's also talks of adding a big sports bar/restaurant to one of the corner lot of all this development.

All contracts, options, or other devices not based upon a substantial consideration, or that are otherwise employed to permit an unlicensed person to sell, lease, or let real estate, the beneficial title to which has not, in good faith, passed to such party for a substantial consideration, are hereby declared void and ineffective in all cases, suits, or proceedings had or taken under this chapter; however, this section shall not apply to irrevocable gifts, to unconditional contracts to purchase, or to options based upon a substantial consideration actually paid and not subject to any agreements to return or right of return reserved.I regularly turn in these frauds.

This is a team sport.

More importantly, I wanted to find a way to reconnect my past experience in sports and entertainment to the real estate market. 

I enjoy watching sports, video and tabletop games, listening to podcasts, reading a good book on a early weekend morning, hiking and camping, and above all spending time with family and friends. 

Note the statute says all contracts, options, or other devices that are employed to permit an unlicensed person to sell, lease, or let etc".  

An exotic sports car?

This is a great reminder about the importance of the life safety devices (CO and Smoke Detectors) in the property.

i'd suggest looking into 1031 exchange (quick google search would explain it more than me typing on this silly device)....
