Financial Freedom Network I laughed at -- after reading the agreement, no comparable value for that monthly price -- 3 or so years ago, if value has changed now, my time-based disclaimer is as aforementioned -- and Legrand would do well to disconnect FFN from his name, as I believe FFN is now out-sourced, whatever.I empathize with you , Joe and the other responders, but when I read Legrand’s, and most of the other guru’s, contracts prior to trying a teaser product, it clearly stated in the agreement that if customer did not want the upgrade service for which the teaser/free product, free video, whatever, was being given away, then customer must cancel within the stated period of time, which almost always range from 30 to 90 days [60 days is becoming more common, as more folks forget to cancel]So long as terms to cancel are clearly stated prior to contracting, I don’t find it unethical, -- and real estate gurus have merely adapted a teaser or rebate marketing technique used in most every industry -- recently even Chrysler cars [try our minivan for 60 days!

Seller should transfer the property into a land trust.   

Quote from @Michael K Gallagher: Quote from @A Rao: I invest in land and have done entitlement/zoning and other DD work successfully for years.A broker called me this morning on a property I have on a busy interesection and has a QSR client who likes the location, but does not want to do a ground lease, only a build to suit. 

Quote from @Lee Loen: Hi,I'm an investor looking to acquire land, build, and sell luxury homes in the Scottsdale/PV area. 

If you're earning primarily W-2 wages, interest, or dividends, those attractive depreciation deductions from your cost segregation study will be suspended.Think about it this way: You might spend $10,000-$15,000 on a cost segregation study, expecting immediate tax savings, only to find those deductions suspended indefinitely.Does this mean cost segregation studies are worthless?

Do you want 10-20 places on the land?

I had a flipper come to me asking about doing a new development.He would need $240,000 to purchase the land from a wholesaler and then he would have his GC partner get the construction loan but they cant get the loan if their is someone else that has a lien on the property so i would have to collateralize against one of their assets which they don't have.

Are you in an area where land is very valuable leaving you with less to depreciate?

How do you value a apartment that will be rented out to primarily section 8 tenants?  

Sell your investment property and buy the land for your business.
