BRICS is hard at it, the US, still trying to coast on the actions of 3/4 generations ago...... 

I just put two long-term rental properties on the market that we rehabbed in desirable area of West End Boise and demand is a little lower than expected.

But out west here generally speaking surface mining on a small parcel simply will not be allowed in the current zoning code.. 

Located in the Mid-West, thank you!

The west coast, especially Seattle area is very expensive.

If you’re looking for cash flow, check out the west side of Cleveland and Akron.

To me as mentioned path of progress cant go wrong.. unless the city dies. the other land to buy would be timber land in the North west.
