You just bought Robert a nice new pair of leather dress shoes .

Okay, throw in the 68 SS Camaro, the leather couches, the lawn tractor, the 200 gallon salt water tank (WITH ALL 14 FISH) and we got a deal!"    

Our family is 3/4 vegan with the only animal products we consume being leather and cheese, however, we are phasing both out.My position as the president of a tool company and a precision agriculture company consumes most of the time.

When I show apartments to prospective tenants I like to dress business casual - dress pants, nice shirt, leather shoes - not too formal and not in old jeans and sneakers. 

Took out all of the carpet, restored all of the old hardwood floors underneath, bought nice leather furnishings and blended them with functional antiques, placed a beautiful antique persian rug in the living room, replaced all lighting with early 1900s look.  

The last few deals I did with agents were things I brought to them (REOs I found) because these were deals I couldn't do privately.At this stage of your career you are probably going to have to invest a lot actual shoe leather on the pavement of your targeted farm area and in the courthouse tracking down the info you need.The good news with that is if this area turns 'hot' you will be ahead of the curve with your knowledge.

I'm facing the same problems with Boston and high priced entry but lucky that my father invested in a few buildings in leather district back in the late 80s/early 90s and a house in Quincy for a flip/buy and hold.

Hustle be relentless be a shark, never give up never surrender.. unless you find one in black leather outfit knee high leather boots with a leather whip.

It is a little crocodile, but the problem is not only in numbers that are far from what investors suggest on this forum.

I dress in business suits, rubbing elbows with the best of them, talking all educated, but I also like to ride motorcycles, dress in my leather, with wind in my hair.
