@Kira Golden can I buy you coffee and hear more about Puerto Rico vacation rentals?

There are lots of Oil & Gas jobs in downtown that can pay a wage appropriate of a $300K house, but that doesn't explain things like RiNo & Golden Triangle.

@Alyssa Golden: Old Town is popular.

And using that much capital restricts your growth.My conclusion is that legacy owners have golden properties.  

The property was right across the street from a university campus (which had grown to where the building was), and so we revisited the idea of renting to students and long story shorter - we discovered law students are golden, after suffering a few undergrad stories that are doozies lol.But, who could ever have anticipated this? 

The surplus figure cited by Frank and others has two problems: it’s both misleading and paints an incomplete picture of the Golden State’s finances.

I discovered law students and they are golden - but - only law students going to a full-time program during the day, because I learned that part-time law students who have other jobs or kids, etc., aren't usually able to stick with the program, unfortunately.Also, they will stay for 3 or 4 years if you get them their first year -and- you let them sublet their unit over the summer. 

If there's a downhill area with no other houses, you're golden. 

I thought it was the perfect solution to the yellow tile to just go with a golden paint. 

I have been doing research on buying, rehabbing and renting out properties for some time now, but it seems all of the golden rules (50% rule, 2% rule etc...) are equipped for states with much lower home values.
