Hello everyone, I am looking for a mentor that is interested in helping a 29 and 30 yr old.Unfortunately there is no financial incentive at this point but we are both reasonably well connected in DFW and SD/SF, California...Essentially looking for someone that wants to help people and pass on the knowledge that others have passed on to them.Both of us have graduate business degrees (not sure that’s worth much in real estate)... and both of us are in technology And one of us is former Marine officer.Appreciate anyone that may be interested in connecting!

There is a group of us that used to meet in Marin pre-Covid. 

Hello, I’m camonte 23 years old currently working as a Merchant Marine.

Looking at area around Marine Barracks in SE - closer to DCA, Del Ray in Alexandria, and Oxon Hill near the MGM complex has been booming.

So make it functional, paint it museum white, stage it with Kandinsky prints and a copy of Duchamp's Nude Descending a Staircase over the staircase, do the cabinets in marine plywood with horizontal-running bookmatched walnut veneer, you're good to go. 

One is a store front space that used to be a marine supply store and the other is a workshop/garage.We fully understand that it’s going to be at least a year before we can do anything with the commercial buildings but are planning on cleaning up the parking area in front to rent to a couple of food trucks daily.The property is located less than a mile from the entrance to a very popular state park and the food trucks will be able to capture that traffic during the warmer months.Ideally, one of the food truck operators will decide after a while to grow their business into an actual brick and mortar and we’ll strike up a mutually beneficial deal with them to lease the space.There’s no way to subdivide the property but I’m wondering if there’s any shot of refinancing the house once we’ve done the rehab so as to pull some of that HELOC money out.Another idea is to approach a local bank with the overall plan and see what kind of financing we could get for the entire development project.Thoughts?

I would love to connect and share experiences and motivation.My Dad was a Marine!
