@David Sosna when you say wealthier buyers are culturally vacant, that is the same as saying minorities or immigrants are not wealthy.

But I will use those words again, and I am amazed.Thank you for putting heart and soul into changing a neighborhood culture, for taking back the good, and for risking everything so your new neighbors can have a great something.This story is incredibly good...can't WAIT for your book!

The lifestyle, restaurants, accessibility, people, things to do, culture, all incredible.

Probably because they do come from these places, and the majority of investors up to this point, may have never set foot there and don't relate to the culture. 

My husband grew up in the Pittsburgh area and we now live in Indy -- the culture, etc is very similar. 

This is a very disciplined lot of buyers with rock solid jobs, huge savings culture and strong dual income structures.

I started off with Keller Williams Vermont, just like @Diane Felix , and can't speak highly enough about the culture, education, and benefits of working with KW.

Requires tough skin and an understanding of the local culture in order to navigate it successfully.

It is more about how to survive in the culture of substandard services. 

It is a sad commentary on our culture that we have been reduced to such a ridiculous amount of bureaucracy and red tape just to not be hassled or targeted by those who may have their feelers out for a quick payday off someone else's hard earned assets.
