Before looking for a new market with better numbers, I wanna give this market my best shot as I am already invested there in many ways.My latest idea is not compete where its most competitive and get more creative.

That is a long term economic shot in the arm that carries a higher velocity of money in a community long term, taxes, etc.

I have done a lot of looking around on Trulia, Zillow, Redfin, etc. but with as little experience as I have I just feel like I'd be taking a shot in the dark no matter what I picked - would a realtor help with this or is that just how it goes?

Once your added to everyone's list then this is a scenario that could most definitely happen, but this is nothing new by a long shot.

There was no fudging and he called the shots, not me.

And as I'm sitting here typing this, it occurs to me that I forgot to plant my bandit signs for the weekend, and I'll be in class all day tomorrow, so this weekend is pretty much shot for signs.

I just recently started doing my own, but they are not as good as his shots.

So, in the end I shot in a bid starting at $91,200.

It is also going to be dependent on the type of investments, whether long or shot term, you make with the funds.

John N. and Jon Holdman - Give it a shot now.
