It's a pleasure to have such people with a vision as yourself in our forum and no less, who is putting action into his dreams. 

I must have called 10 institutions, but did finally find someone who understood my vision and was willing to lend to me the way I needed.

I began helping her craft the vision of what financial freedom meant to her before we got too deep into the weeds with analyzing numbers and driving for dollars.The second hurdle was alerting her to the reality that while I was more confident in this approach as opposed to investing in traditional asset classes, this was not a get rich quick scheme and that incremental gains over time was still the horizon I had set for myself.

I'm talking to those who have a vision of the future as a society as a whole, children's future, & grandchildren's future not just their lives.

I have NOT worked with Leon Valley, but the smaller cities seem to have a vision of what they want for their little piece of the world.

This has been an ongoing vision for me for a few years now.

Looking at the plan of Parmer innovation center they have a really good vision (more like Domain-sque entertainment/ work colocation type development) and companies are leasing up the spaces so fast.

We are just about to buy a house on land we want to also develop later down the line, so we are buying, refurbishing and renting and it should cashflow $500 month.Our property and land will increase in value, capital decrease and all works very well with a longer term vision, so that's what we need to do.

And if you put 50% down on a 300k house you'll still have 850k (most of your money) left to pursue the larger vision. 

I, for one, don't have 2020 vision(Had to make the obvious joke when I saw no one had.
