Harbor Freight has one on sale right now for $199 bucks.

In the inner city, you have to be harder and temper your kindness with sounder business judgement or they will run you over like a freight train!

In addition, the city has a great beer/food/art scene that is redefining the culture and keeping folks interested in renovating and living in the once-neglected historic districts around town. 

I redefined my freedom number: intend to buy a flip in the next 1-2 months with cash and work on it myself to put the reading into action.

I'm holding, but that is because my cost basis is so low, it is cash flowing like a freight train, and I don't have the tax shelter you currently do.I personally love the house hacking strategy of keeping and turning into a rental, that is how I built my portfolio ... however, I only execute this strategy when I find a great deal, which normally happens most after the market crashes.I think there is still some upside in Palmdale, due to the true things you mentioned.

So...I just got fired this afternoon from my 9-5 because I was talking to people at work about Real Estate and my boss felt like I was focusing more of my attantion on Real Estate then I was on making him money as a Sales Manager for a large freight broker.

Lenders should absolutely make money when the loan closes; period.Smart to audit and learn while others pay the freight. 

@Bobby Shell I think your question or rather your requirement(s) should be redefined.

It’s like a loaded freight train, it takes a long time to get momentum but, once you have it, it’s nearly impossible to stop.

Seriously.9)Harbor Freight is a great resource for buying tools that you will seldom use.
