We even have a skii resort just outside of town (10min drive from my house and Im in the city limits).

I'm mostly familiar with the Poconos area near the resorts but I know it's more SRT over there and haven't found too many multi-families.Would love to get some direction and/or network with someone doing this now.Thanks!!

There are several good skii resorts in the cascades in central part of the state.

You should definitely run the comps for selling to make sure if you did resort to that last option - you could still get some money in return

But you seem to be convinced that "hey Investor , you give me work , you give me money and how dare you ask to share the risk , give me 30k and just hope everything works out , if not resort to laws , But hey that logic doesn't apply to me , I won't take any risk , I am running a business but why should I take any risk , why should I resort to laws - My business should have zero risk , your business should have all the risk "I am sure the readers will understand the funny part .

Heck, if it’s that easy, we would all become real estate investors and go lying in some beach resorts.

Motivated sellers and other good property deals may not resort to using an agent for several reasons.I never trusted Craigslist for anything, but found it to be an easy and quick way to find properties and make offers if you wanted to try searching in your local area in your free time to get an idea.Best of luck to you!

If your firm does Series LLC's please connect with me so I can refer investors and learn more about series LLC's.I'm about to buy my first investment property (a condo at a ski resort) and do the air B&B thing.  

Waiting for it to go to tax sale should be the last resort.

They are all into buying pre-construction condos in resort areas and see to want guaranteed returns.I personally know only one person who has investments in Costa Rica, and she is doing extremely well with hers.That retirement magazine, what is it called?
