An elderly lady who owns rentals next door to me has moved away since her husband passed. 

After 4 months they give you the opportunity to open a secured credit cardAnother is called "Kikoff": These guys will report a $500 Limit Credit Line for less than 5 bucks a month.These modern services are a great place to start, they will never report late payments, won't get you into debt and build your credit score every bit as much as credit cards.After you 3 - 5 of these open for 90 days THEN apply for credit cards, you will get much better approvals, higher limits, lower rates, more rewards etc...Mortgage lenders will also be looking at how long those accounts have been open.

in the SF peninsula and down to Cupertino there was a builder who built about 30k homes in the 50s and 60s  called Eickler these were modern heat in the floor tons of glass interior walk ways with gardens in them etc etc.. very unique ..

I rented out a tiny commercial space to some ladies that wanted to open a retail clothing store. 10 days after move in they had a falling out and one of them moved her portion of the merchandise out of the store the next day.

If you can build a unique and modern cabin with a view that close to Gatlinburg and the GSMNP I think it will cashflow well at $400k.

I'm based in Dallas.Not really mate, "people buy people" and I never was a fan of "promoting" my business or selling crap from stage.But now that I think of it, might get some branded stand up banners, quick fold up picnic table, 3 pretty ladies and just have a set up in the lobby hahaJokes

Purchase price: $65,000 This property was a classic grandma home that needed some TLC to bring it up to modern standards.

These updates modernized the property, improved its curb appeal, and significantly increased its market value.
