Yesterday I read that they will break ground on a 200-300 unit high end apartment complex in GVR, and Vegas is slotted for 3000 apartment units to be built in 2014.

sure they cheat blatantly at the casino but the marine environment is stunning.complacency always costs money,

Haha, Seth I just got back from snow skiing and the casino and leave tomorrow for two weeks at the beach.Pay someone to do the work and go on vacation with the TIME you saved.

Joe Smith investor would rather get 15% total return YoY in a SFR than 2-6% in the slots market)As others stated above, you may need to differentiate your market or method of sourcing deals.

Especially with a potential casino going in, I feel as though more and more people will be going closer to the city.I agree with your thoughts on a PM - But hey, if making money on real estate were easy, then everyone would be doing it!

I've read a lot about atlantas plans of development including the belt line transportation expansion, MGM grand developing casinos, Mercedes coming to town and much more going on.

Why buy a fourplex, when just slotting yourself into 5+ units drops the cost per square foot by at least $100?  

But if I were you instead of trying to "go it alone" in any part of REI if you are new, find an REI club like @Nathan suggested and find someone to Mentor youe en if you arrange a small fee for a regular time slot to watch them work, an agent, an investor, whoever -- any successful person who's done successful deals and can train you how to think/look, how to select which *type* of REI might be right for you even.

We have Indian Casinos just a short drive into the mountains;)

Once you fill those slots up, your can still use bank money using commercial loans.
