Hey Amanda, would love to connect!

Yes @Emma Hans is exactly right and it sounds like you already know; Ithaca is bizarrely specific when it comes to code enforcement, historic preservation, and a bunch of other things that seem to make little sense.

Yep, what @Amanda Roderick pointed out is huge. 1mil plus new residents over the next three decades means we have to put them somewhere.

If you want to consider other options, such as developing an Airbnb real estate investing strategy, you can get inspired by what people like @Amanda Williams, aka The Traveling Realtor, did to build their passive income.Good luck and welcome to BP! 

@Amanda Davis I opted in for the $97 monthly pro membership as well. 

Hey Amanda!

"Tax Free Wealth" and "The Win Win Wealth Strategy" by Tom Wheelright, "Tax Strategies for the Savvy Real Estate Investor" by Amanda Han and Matthew MacFarland, and "Self-Directed IRA Secrets Revealed" by H.

Amanda, Port Jervis has been improving infrastructure and the new mayor seems to be very sincere about rebuilding the town being that he is from Port Jervis. 

I would follow this post: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12/topics/414267-books-im-reading-nowFound this Tax book from Bigger Pockets The Book on Tax Strategies for the Savvy Real Estate Investor: Powerful techniques anyone can use to deduct more, invest smarter, and pay far less to the IRS. by Amanda Han, Matthew MacFarland
