I sent him certified mail of my intentions and actions according to our partnership agreement ( as there was a section just for partnership buy outs and dissolution of partnership ) He argued with me , said he didn’t understand why I was upset and didn’t trust him .. then wanted to try to negotiate the amount I felt I was due for the work I already did to that hoarder house and even questioned the hrs I listed ( which was already on our daily spreadsheets previously when I recorded them ) but , in the end .. he ponied up the amount I wax due .. it was pennies on the dollar really .. it’s not like i was looking for a $15hr job ..actually, I think I ended up with closer to $25k .. but still .. that house alone I was projected to make over $50k on my end ..Now .. as upset as I was with him .. cause I really didn’t understand why he would blow up our partnership like that .. according to him he didn’t need the money .. he wanted to start building his real estate empire instead of flipping them ..which I would have been ok with ..hell ..

Coastal, inland, rural - all options.Best house hacking market IMO:Tampa, Orlando, Space Coast, and Treasure Coast.

I've given talks in tech (check out www.productforlife.com) and would love to talk about the empirical experiences / learnings of an out-of-state investor.

If you want to mitigate risk, invest in Gatlinburg or somewhere inland.  

It’s about getting the property and buIlding an empire, not getting every penny out on day one.

I've done a cursory peak at social media and do not see anything concerning.I have come up with some things that worry me, but honestly it's not based on any empirical evidence as I have never rented to people so young. 

I notice a lot of bad-mouthing on these forums from the phony ethics police so I thought that it was time that "The Empire Strikes Back."

Has anyone had this experience and is it worthy to invest in land?

Hi Randy - I am also interested in land/timber investing.

Thanks @Ryan Sauer and @Hai Loc, I saw the inventory has shrunk in Niagara Falls and I can't even find any home there anymore especially the new builts from Empire homes.
