Somebody bought a property used by the Army for bombing practice.Somebody bought the bottom of a man made lake, no shore line included.Many people have bought expired land leases, literally no worth the paper it was printed on.etc. etc. etc.

I got my gun and weapons training in the Army, fired everything the Army had and some we didn't have.

Hello, My future father in law bought a property in 93 which is an 8-plex in LA for around 300,000He owns his own home currently ( beautiful home)and owns a rental also ( I don't know when he purchased this)He also has a real estate license ( he isn't an active realtor, he is retired and just invest in stocks now)He believe california for the place to purchase property because you can see and feel it.I am trying to convince him that just because its out of state, doesn't mean it can't be successful.He says that unemployment is higher than anywhere else in the USACalifornia and Nevada are both around 6.7-7.1% He says thats because obviously the population is much higher in california so its not comparison He believe with the indian reservations in california, it will turn vegas the unpopular place to gamble and all of the las vegas community is fueled by gambling and entertainment. 

Go join the army or the Air force, but make ABSOLUTELY sure you get into intel.  

in my most recent tenant drama, a couple who claimed to be 'husband and wife' and 'childless' turned out to be unmarried, have 3 kids(who were in and out of foster care), along with a whole other slew of mistruths. i'd simply like to know that, given federal (and local) statutes that strictly prohibit discrimination based on family status, is there any recourse in dealing with a situation where a couple presents as husband and wife (and/or as without children) when once approved, they move in and are quite bold about the fact that they actually aren't married and even go as far as to state that nor do ever plan to get married because its 'just a piece of paper'(the latter only with which do i agree) and then nonchalantly march in with an army of undisclosed children they claim are their own?

The owner I worked for said in one of his large units in another town (my building mainly just had small studios), the Indian family he had in there got it so humid, that the floor boards expanded and the nails started popping up. 

and I like to think I knew this was going to happen,  but lo and behold the Graton Indians bought the 120 acres right across the street and built the largest Indian Gambling facility in northern CA. and my property got swept up into the city limits and rezone from AG to mixed use resi and commercial.. value today once permitted conservatively 2 to 3 million.. did it give me cash flow No not one dime.. could it have gone no were sure could of.. did I get lucky I do believe I did... but at the end of the day it was on the border of the city limits and there was a Homedepot anchored shopping center and a freeway interchange one block over.. so I thought Some day.. and in another 5 years I think I will cash in.... and or I will build it out.But by the time that happens I will have owned it 25 years or so...

You could get some cheap used ones from the Salvation Army or Craigslist.

I am a former military man (US ARMY), and I agree that it is stressful moving while in the military!

Buy and Hold is my strategy while I decide if my W2 (Active Army) job is worth sticking around after my retirement eligibility time comes around or just staying in and collecting my normal income and doing real estate concurrently.
