Recreation paradise.apples have been replaced by vineyards and wineries..

And that your insurance  surely covers the kind of recreational toys you provide.

Are you buying paper on raw land that land developers sell for recreational tracts through out the west  and or like time share or campground paper ? 

Sell off timber, hunting/recreational area, what?

The 379 metropolitan areas surveyed were evaluated in nine categories: housing affordability (cost of living), transportation, jobs, education, climate, crime, health care, recreation and ambiance (museums, performing arts, restaurants and historical districts).

I just didn't know if I was going to be able to recreate the durability with the products on the market today especially since the plan is to keep this as a long term rental.  

Watch how the real estate moves after the legalize cannibus recreationally.

My advice would be to make sure you find free/inexpensive recreation and take advantage of it so you don't go nuts while you are cutting back to save.

Slow pitch would definitely be a fun recreational alternative...or a REALLY boring one.

I use a property management company to handle the day-to-day operations and so I only use a simple spreadsheet to keep track of my revenue and expenses month  by month (with a year summary to give my accountant).I can't remember where I found the spreadsheet template (i think i just googled it, but you could easily re-create something like this).Hope it helps!
