I'm just around the lake in Kalamazoo, Mi.

Hey guys, im looking to get started here in florida. currently i have done exactly 0 real estate deals.... haha -=X (i still rent) Currently im residing in Lake Mary, just north of Orlando, and im in the process of selling my locksmith business.

I told him I would give him an offer with a couple of options for him to choose from after I looked at the numbers.So, here's what I have:It's a duplex in Lake Havasu City (popular retirement & family community).The man has a dread disease that has forced retirement and is anxious to sell this prop.

I also just had a two acre lake put in.

Black swans could always happen, but those could be bad or good.

im with John on investing in college towns though because its important to have schools,jobs hospitals and something about the area interesting like here are some examples. a nearby water feature like beach,ocean,port,major river,lake mountain w skiing, or mild climate.

Once I had enough saved up, I'd start looking at those beat up shacks around the lakes.

Seth Williams I love Salt Lake City.

We also found this on lake front property where the property taxes are 'inflated' by the lake frontage regardless of the home value.

:)That works for me, I'm a mortgage processor today, tomorrow I'll be an investigator, but only in the morning, later I'll be on call to render first aid to swimmers at the lake as an emergency technician.
