just because its real estate does not mean you don't have a business enterprise going.Investing in the right notes  is about as passive as I have seen in all the things I either do or have done... 

@Michael Lear if it was decommissioned and showed a subsequent liakne then it should be indemnified by whoever was paid to decommission it

Also great info on OZs via Enterprise https://www.enterprisecommunity.org/opportunity360

Given that I will be considered self-employed and will initially not have income (or at least not income that is steady or predictable), I will be having my parents co-sign the FHA loan to fulfill the income requirements.I clearly have sufficient capital to not only fund a 3.5% down investment, but to also make the subsequent mortgage payments.

All subsequent listings appear to be in order by last update.

I believe that was passed by the city council and subsequently thrown out by the court soon after as being unconstitutional

The business must be an active enterprise performing a service or selling a product. 

Not deal breakers.I'm currently an active retail mortgage originator, amongst a couple other things, but Its been my experience that working as a wholesale account executive from 2000 until 2016 and being on the backside of literally thousands of loan closings since the inception of the newest regulations that I can recall only one instance of a set back caused by cents on a transaction, but that was early on in the Dodd/Frank era and was the result of software, that was subsequently fixed by an addition 3 day waiting period, because that was the safest play for the lenders ***.The take away here, again just in my opinion, is on the front side of the transaction, write the offer at whatever it takes to get the contract done, then hand it off to your favorite lender...they'll figure it out. :)

My goal is to create an enterprise that spans real estate and business able to support and grow my team and better my community.

Funny how finnacial "wizards" always try to quicly distract BP investors away from thier comments with subsequent posts when they poke thier nose in a discussion topic in which they display complete finnacial ignorance to all.That's okay,  they need to learn too.
