Thank you for all your suggestions - I have learned a lot from this forum and all the advice has been invaluable in me having the confidence to remotely buy and self manage my properties thus far.

Hello, I am doing my first new construction and at first I was very confident, but no, not so much.  

We loose almost all of the site line if my neighbor decides to put up a sign, plant shrubs, let their tree overgrow, etc. and this is in the riskier direction from our stand point.Our argument was that we have 400' in the direction that has a flat straight away (theoretically faster traveling traffic) and have 3xx' in a direction that the traffic is traveling up hill with a shorter stopping distance and time, most traffic will be coming off of an Interstate off ramp which in theory they would be well under the speed limit when as they approach our property.To answer your question: I am undecided if I will do more development projects.

Doing your homework will give you confidence to invest and you'll have to do it scared.

Not quite a new member as I've been lurking these forums for years, finally deciding to get serious and figured doing the "New Member Introduction" post would be a good step.Briefly about me:  I'm currently working as a merchant mariner (3rd Mate) and I travel for work about half the year, looking to get into real estate investing to supplement my income and begin building a portfolio during the half of the year when I am home.  

Not many on BP will have gotten there with no debt.But, conversely, many who are or have been retired choose to pay all debt off.There’s an approach to get you going, and an approach to feel confident in early retirement.Many investors who dont know what that inflection point is will continually leverage thirsting for more, and ultimately wish they’d listened to Dave.

Can you get people on the phone, are they confident in their answers, will they provide track record, referrals, etc.
