I cover Ithaca, Binghamton, Watkins Glen and Elmira/Corning, but I live here in Brooktondale. 

It is currently a mixture of fear and excitement but  I am going to do everything that I can to use that to motivate all my steps forward.

A little more info: It's about 12 acres of land that is being rented to a local farmer for corn.

Where you may have heard of is either Corning, NY (Home of Corning Inc.) or Watkins Glen, NY (Wine and NASCAR Racetrack).

The mixture of properties included the following:SFRDuplexes 12 Unit ComplexThe final negotiations were for a cash purchase of a portion of the deal, with the remainder being owner financed.

The prices went up then back down, the number of doors started much higher, to end up around 40.The mixture of properties included the following:SFRDuplexes 12 Unit ComplexMany thanks go out to the buyer and seller for working hard to make this deal happen.

@Michael Cook, I currently bank with Corning Federal Credit Union.

Or a mixture of both?
