My bathroom outlet sparks when I plug in my hair dryer4.

Currently, we are working with a company in Vancouver called Allur for a program called SPARK to manage our sales metrics, leads and vacancies.

Full disclosure this idea was sparked from reading forums here and Bigger Pocket podcasts.

I started with these two companies because I've heard a lot of great things about them over many posts and their respective CEO's have contributed greatly to many posts here at BP.Birmingham looks promising, population growth (while minimal) seems stable, lots of new economic activities and projects developing that will help spark the economy.Dallas/Houston surrounded by great companies however Im afraid it might be harder to find properties in these markets that have been quite hot for sometime now.

I have very little experience in real estate/REI other than what I've start here on the BP website and a few books I've read from Robert Kiyosaki which I guess would be where my interest on the subject was sparked.

I see this mentioned quite a bit on some of the podcasts and various books I've read on REI, so that's where my interest was sparked.

This news just sparked my interest:http://www.reuters.com/article/us-paraguay-brazil-...There are many foreign industries, mainly from Brazil, that settle in Paraguay to produce goods and later export those products to their own country.

Either way, 2-4 units are still considered single-family for lending purposes (with some minor differences, but I won't go into all that here), so you can still use your regular lender.That said, I've been using Brandon Sparks from Barton Creek Lending Group for my last few loans (small multifamily and condo loans), and he really knows his stuff.

The idea of investing in REI really sparks my curiosity, and what drives my desire to learn more is how it can be considered an act of humanitarianism.

While being here in my spare time ive read several books on investing and it has sparked my interest tremendously!
