If that same sun shines on a Lease Optionwhat would the approximate 5 year total look like?       

I follow the sun.. when it sunshine's at 5 am I am up.. anyway can't sleep any longer...

We set up a llc account with Wells Fargo in 2014 from the Sunshine Coast.

It can be a good investment but the return will have to come from principal reduction and appreciation, not cash flow.If you can continue to find and flip with this type of profit, I'd recommend making hay while the sun shines and continue to do it (at least until this opportunity dries up).  

But no one has ever accused me of crapping sunshine and pissing rainbows 😀

Yes moved here a few years ago...miss home...but year-round sunshine bro!

Life as a Real Estate Investor isn’t always Sunshine & Rainbows…Some nights you gotta field calls from angry incomprehensible sellers!

We have 300 days of sunshine, amazing access to the outdoors, diverse cultural draws and relatively mild(ish) weather.I sound like a Dept of Commerce ad, but all in all I think it's pretty safe to say that if marijuana were outlawed again tomorrow, we'd have a slight relief in the absolute insanity that is our housing market and an equal amount of relief in the unbelievable traffic issues we're facing right now, but not so much that it will ever go back to the "good ol' days" when an oil and gas bust in the 80s decimated the state.

No need to sneak around - this give you another opportunity to review lease with tenant.Throw some sunshine on it.
