Its such a zoo, I ended up looking toward the suburbs of Tacoma, Federal Way, Kent, etc.This definitely helps my mental roadblock that Seattle is near impossible to invest in.

We own a property in the Clayton neighborhood in Northeast Denver, about 10 blocks north of the Denver Zoo (36th & Cook). 

Building an amazon hub and a zoo to the east of the city along with a new planned transit rail line?

In addition the much of the rest of the year had closed beaches, zoos, museums, etc. 

The closer you are to the farm park, zoo and state hospital the nicer the area.

I've not been down there in a while, but have the funny feeling that with "flip shows" on TV 24/7 again, it might be back to the zoo it became around 2006 or so!

This is where the confidence part is important - knowing you are the type of zoo animal who will handle whatever comes.

An epic trip to the zoo and/or park down the street is a happy weekend for us3) Depending on the market, buying-right can lower your largest fixed expense This is kind of a "duh!"

That, and I have a few young kids, which accelerated my efforts- I had a job, like yours, that kept me away from soccer games and spring shows at their schools or going to the zoo on a Tuesday.

Good materials and weekly zoo meetings where they do a deep dive into your business.
