Las Vegas will have its first major national sports team (NHL), Faraday Future is a new electric car company that is building a huge manufacturing facility, (not putting a lot of emphasis on this because it can possibly flop you know like Fisker).

The podcasts’ emphasis on spelling out your goals, getting some exercise, and then reading (I just finished The One Thing) to help you achieve your goals is something that keeps me focused and motivated.

But from what people tell me, you need 2 union electricians to change a light bulb and a city inspector to confirm it was done right (Emphasis through exaggeration of course).  

The second time is for emphasis I'm not meaning to yell, mostly the emphasis is made for Erick, you mentioned license requirements :)

If I were you, I would exploit the experience with architecture and pursue a MS in Real Estate Development with an emphasis in public works/government and or developing raw land into communities.

I also would rather establish a good working relationship with my tenants with an emphasis on communication rather than try to nickel and dime them for every fee I could justify charging them.

@Matt RayThere are a lot of different factors to consider and what you place emphasis on will largely depend on your RE investing goals, risk tolerance and available cash for property purchase.

My emphasis is first on buying a couple multi family properties and then flipping once I have some cash flow.

I DID read a book on them, that Jussier(or something) buy but i believe his emphasis was on commercial.

As a lifetime native of Miami I can definitely concur with Neo's post with extra emphasis on point #2 !!!
