Joseph, I literally am right down the road from you in Destin FL.  

-------------------------One of my criteria for COMMERCIAL is has to be on a MAJOR street, with visibility, otherwise you need business that are destination and have customer come find them.having visibility means you can rent it faster b.c I get my commercial tenant from my for rent signs, never for the MLS or Loopnet or other brokers.

One person may wish to take multiple vacations a year to foreign destinations, while another person might be content with a trip to the beach in the summer and a ski trip in the winter -- one person might need a Ferrari and Porsche in the garage, while another person might be content with a Camry and a Ranger.

I am looking for anyone activity in the North West Florida market to network with. I currently live in Dallas and have a rental in Fort Walton and I am looking to partner up with someone local to build a buy and hold ...

First of all, success is ajourney, it's not a destination, and all successful people start at thesame place.

I can post links to these stories in anyone is interested.Chicago has the worst debt BUT the most options for avoiding property tax spikes because of its size and the fact that its a world class destination. 

It is critical to know where you are in order to reach a destination. 

Everyone has a different life and definition of happiness.Some would go through torture to extract another 3% out of a property annually and others are happy with XX percent and putting their life on cruise control with a higher quality asset.There are still deals out there but it is a lot of work.

There is an upcoming college and it could potentially be a great destination area. 

I think I finally found a good opportunity but would like some assistance to help evaluate if my math/thinking is correct .The area that I am in is over saturated with investors due to the Destination Medical Center plan proposed by Mayo Clinical Hospital.
