We took this disaster personally as we love Asheville and have visited many times.When there's an official presidential disaster declaration (there was), flood insurance policy holders should apply for FEMA assistance in addition to their flood insurance claim.

Is there any value in flying to another part of the country, whether it be Pittsburgh or LA, to visit a project that I invested in? 

Hmmm, pre-foreclosure and California, don't go together and are not good bed fellows.

I'm Cindy Wirth from Oceanside, CA, passionate about real estate investing for the past few years.

I'm an out of state investor from CA. 

I have to visit so many different sources to gather the full picture of the property, then manually input the data into calculators, Excel models, or other tools to calculate cashflow potential.

There are many other factors that go into the cost of building especially in CA. 

I’ve got a property out in Joshua Tree, CA.

Make sure you go visit any of the complexes they're pitching in person. 

I still have a waiting list for my much higher priced California properties.
