It was the last house in the tract, and DR wanted to unload it.

Most of the time if they call, I let the initial call go to voicemail so I can have time to digest their request.- Giving my home address for rent payment.

A bit off topic but I just thought I'd mention, 6 properties is a lot of information to record and digest.

As a newbie I'll need time to digest so much info bit I thank you for sharing with me what was shared with you.

There was a land rush in the 50 and 60's and that's when many desert ranch's were broken into smaller tracts and sold off. the new buyers are probably 3 or 4 owners who bought and then realized it was worthless land and then just let them go for tax's..not saying 100% of the properties are worthless and some may use them for recreation so I get that.But for investment NO WAY no HOW.. the website talks about annual appreciation etc.. its all just sales hype.I would think your hubby would also need a Real estate license to do this legally unless the company owns the property and your hubby is an employee ..

I figured as much, just seems like there is a lot of information to digest out there, but probably not worth the heavy upfront payment of $10k with nothing being guaranteed.

You are on the right tract and Keep asking questions!

LOL, actually, the bar code on your toothpaste emits a very, very low radiation level that "bleeds over" like radio waves over 20,000,000 identifiers, you're wearing it on your teeth and the NSA can tract you anywhere you go at any time.

The neighborhood was a solid C/C+, maybe B- neighborhood with several other duplexes in the neighborhood tract, which I'm pretty sure were all mainly rentals.

The rest is available to you in the form of free podcasts, youtube, online forums, blogs, etc. and the old fashioned books (or Kindle if you want to be modern there too) - more information that you can digest, only time to have.
