Anywhere near the Henry Ford Museum.  

After a Dave Ramsey "moment" I have found myself debt free, 39 years old, in a rental (as I haven't fount the right deal on the home and property I want to own) since selling my last home.I'm in an area that has EXPLODED in value due to recent oil field activity and a shortage of homes for sale, much less for rent.My initial thought was to continue looking for that 50 - 100 acre property to build a home on so that I can leave my kids that "legacy" that many of us in Texas dream of.My thought process has changed as I can't afford it in this area and school district anymore.I'm considering buying 10-15 unrestricted acres and buying a mid sized mobile home to live in for 2 years while continuing to save for that bigger property and modest country home to live in.I'm watching single wides on 1 acre rent for $1500 per month in this area and double wides rent for $2,000 + while larger stick built homes rent for $4,000-$5,000 per month as the oil field workers will "split" a 4 bedroom home at $1,000 per month each without batting an eye.My thought is to buy this property, put the double wide on it, live in it for a couple of years while adding a single wide rental or 2 per year in the process.This oil activity (The Eagle Ford Shale) is expected to be a "20 year play".I can pay cash for the property, as a conventional mortgage would likely prevent me from "splitting" the property into 1/2 -1 acre tracts with mobile homes if I wanted to.My thought is that if I can buy this property at $10,000 an acre, put a used yet remodeled double wide on it for $60,000 - $70,000 to live in temporarily while adding a few $25,000 (after utilities, septic, pads and driveways) single wides that would rent for even $1200 per month I could fund and cash flow my goal of that 50-100 acre "home stead".Have I lost my mind?

I always borrow a friends Ford diesel when I need to haul something and wont fit in my sedan.

I've had very good experiences with both Terry Monnie and Mattingly Ford.

Some even go for D & F which is not something I recommend, but more power to you if thats your thing.Give The Ultimate Guide to Grading Cleveland Neighborhoods a read to see what type of neighborhoods we have here in the Cleveland area.

He makes a very comfortable living but isn't trying to keep up with the monthly payments on that brand new fully loaded Ford F350 and a speed boat.

@Marcus Ford Can you also PM me the details on this one if it's still available?

If your LLC gets sued, and you are the single owner /managing member of the LLC, count on the plaintiff lawyer piercing your corporate shield.LLC for a small investor is like a nice vanity plate on your Ford Pinto.

Brian Gibbons Is it applied for "de minimis" exemption, say under 3 deals?

Not as much appreciation potential unless you believe in and will wait for de Blasio's big plans out there.http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/467-Jerome-St-Brooklyn-NY-11207/30639992_zpid/It's been out there for 3+ months (maybe for a reason) but they just cut the price and might accept well below ask.
