Graton was backed by Texas Station casinos..

I get that but to me there are other things you can take calculated risks on.. this property is now right across the street from the Graton casino hotel built next door up zoned etc..

I had a blast walking into Cincy over the Roebling and hitting the casino and then across into Newport and over the Licking back to Covington. 

And the front of that T-shirt sounds like boasting: something like "mine are bigger than yours".

But a lot of time it feels like the broker and/or seller is trying to pull wool over a buyer's eyes and I would classify as lying more than boasting about the property.

There are only 3 metro cities that can boast of a population growth of over a million from 2000 - 2010 and Texas has 2 of them.I really do think we will see 7% year appreciation in desirable areas like Plano, TX.

You want to get as close into the big casinos as you can without actually getting some of the slum stuff that is right there (or get a whole block of the slum and fix it up).

Face it, a 72% COC return is unrealistic, and if you prove me wrong (absent casino-like risk), I'll invest right alongside you!

They just put in a new casino which could make it easier to find tenants because of all the new jobs but I would definitely be carful of what part of Springfield you invest in.

Hi Walter,Asking a more specific question might give you a better answer.Such as high end rentals, market rate rentals, section-8 rentals, etc…As well as specifying a property class.For instance if you ask what’s a good Casino to stay at, I like staying at the Wynn, but others might like staying at the Budget Suites.Just asking what’s a good casino to stay at in Las Vegas without any other specifics, will get you a whole range of answers.Good Luck!
