Then stop in to the building department, but "they'll give you a folder with a checklist for everything you'll need to do step by step. "  is probably only a dream in Revere, but you have nothing to lose by trying.  

@Marc Izquierdo Think from an investor perspective, what weight will this 3+ position will bear?!

But there may be stellar deals offering awesome ROI in both areas six months apart, so as long as the "power 4" (as they called them in the podcast) are established in both areas then it really just comes down to deal chasing.At least that's how I see it as someone with one rental and a big dream lol 

Sears scratch and dent seem to be the most competitive, and to your points will not carry much weight in terms of warranty / service given the struggling brick and mortar model. 

Hi BPers, after waking up from the megamillion lottery dream.

I have always found a way to follow my dreams; from dropping out of college to join the Navy going against my family's wishes, leaving the Navy when most felt that it was a perfect career choice.

They only talk about their dream vacations and lifestyle and try to make fake promises with everyone.

Single family price per square foot probably would not carry much weight when you consider a 4 plex we are talking 4x all of the appliances, sinks, plumbing hook ups.

I suspect that we will all be waiting a lifetime to see rates back to were they were 2 to 4 years ago.. so I would not bank on that.. as for pricing.. if its a place to live then you certainly can just wait and see.. its not like your homeless or need to move other than you don't care for your neighbors.. markets always slow about now.. what will be telling in my mind is were we are at next Feb March April in the buying season as it were.I was in a conference this week here in Vegas and some of the speculation is that many of the commercial type loans that had 5 , 7 and 10 year calls  are going to stress those that had max leverage.. as the rates rise the cap rates rise to keep pace thereby devaluing the properties.. to the point some of these investors are going to need to bring some to significant amount of fresh capital to pay down their debt to get a refi.. and that will stress those assets and there could be a real buying opp in that sector.. at least that's what I gleaned from the talk I listened to yesterday... hope you find that dream home in the country !!!
