Quote from @Emmanuel Orange: Calvin, would love to connect with you. i've been trying to expand out in the St pete  area.Thanks for commenting!

For example, my home office, mailing address, and resident agent are all in Orange County, but I don't have any rentals here, yet, so I don't make any money in Orange County.

@Randy Smith I'm new to the forums here but all your posts are $$$$ You can't be comparing apples to oranges especially when you're pitching deals to investors. 100% agree that IRR is the most important metric to look at and it's the only metric we use when evaluating deals.

However, since then I have acquired two properties in South Orange, NJ.

I have done a few deals with Nathan over the years.. he was truthful in his transactions so I am happy for him that he has grown in his company like this.turn key reviews has also outed a bunch of these guys that were bad players @Kim Tucker  and KC had a bunch of them.. just like all these markets.. most of the not ready for prime time guys went the way of the dodo bird during the crash and could not restart.. and or too many complaints or ended up in Orange is the new black like a Marquis et al. 

I know we're mixing apples and oranges here, AND getting off topic, sorry...

Look on the Orange County property appraisers site, pull up that property address, and you should see s small Box near the top that says tax estimates.

So it's a little apples to oranges.

If you look at the 130 year Hurricane map that we had on the Oil Tankers, you will see that all the hurricane tracks avoided hitting Tampa, Florida except for one in 1926 when this area was all orange trees and cattle ranchers.
