There's likely some good lessons he's learned that you may heed I'm not betting against you, but it seems like it could be a massive problem snowballing in the future.

The city wants to tear the property and surrounding properties down Zillow said it’s worth 38000The city offer me 13000.I could use some adviceHard to give advice with limited information, but as a general rule, the longer you wait and the further down the line their project is the more valuable your property will be to them.Zillow (and all automatic online) estimates are very unreliable, so don't base on that.

Online metrics can be good, but they wont paint the whole picture. 

I bet you heard but the market around those areas are booming right now, especially since it is a buyers market, it gives you an advantage to get better deals from sellers while people are continously moving there, especially for jobs like tech, logistics, etc. 

Unless you are unknowledgable, my bet is you could make more from rent than sale, and still have the benefits of owning the original home while you go do something else.The 25K you have left in property will be netting you(gross) of $350 mo or 4200 per year.

Documenting your journey online or engaging on LinkedIn can also help expand your network.

But damned if I can find anything online about landlords using it!

Then you'll need to find land, acquire it, find a spec home buyer and set up meetings to design plans or buy a set online with mods.

Why, because of the main stable coins, it is the only one on of the largest exchanges, Binance, will NOT do a 1:1.So, you're best bets would be those like USDC, TUSD, GUSD, BUSD.

My recommendation would be to get approved as a Landlord, contact the director's office and request that an inspection be completed before a tenant is selected (sometimes they will do this as long as you select a tenant within 14 days - which you want anyways), and have an online application and screening resource in place.
