- your market has produced one of the best residential returns in the nation for this century

multiple investment classes: non-commercial residential, commercial residential, self storage, MHP, industrial, office, merchant space, glamping and traditional camping, hotels/motels, raw land, lumber sales, mineral rights, etc.Your view is not enough opportunities, my view is there are too many to learn and understand.  

We have a residential loan on the prop now and live in the fixer while we're renovating.

Over the long term I am comfortable at 4%.  9.4% not bad return but …Residential RE is not passive even with the use of a PM.  

There will always be storms in between but not to the level of catastrophe that these once every 40 years or so storms bring.From a real estate point of view, after Camille most of the focus was to rebuild the residential that was destroyed. 

It’s in an area that was recently rezoned for mixed commercial/residential, so I’m thinking it is a tear down with good rebuild potential.

Mixed-use fairly simple need to ensure the percentage % of the commercial space versus residential is within guide lines. 

I'm rethinking my verbal contract with a guy who did a complete renovation of the bathroom on the upstairs residential rental property of my duplex.

Maybe that math is a bit over your head but it is simple and actually you take usually 80% of the improvement and divided by x years (based on residential or commercial) to get the proper amount for the tax right offs and you still have so many more deductions, so let's not brush off that subject. 

@Mark Humphrey yeah, this is more of a residential forum.
