We have been meeting the last Weds. of every month.  

Another revenue stream is the heated wedding market in the northwest and I would imagine that I could rent the property for events during the summer.

Too bad there are so many scams built around this strategy, that's where I caution others.Joel, you have a great plan as well, it's smart to build your business around 2 or 3 main themes to address business cycles in RE.Build a business, not a job!

Both resorts are within 15-25 minutes of the theme parks, and both resorts offer golf, water parks, etc.  

If you're not wedded to the idea of Section 8 or straight rentals, you could consider buying the property and selling it to a local buyer, carrying the financing yourself.

Just work hard wooing the wife to sell and hopefully you can find a way for everybody to win and for you to gain 12 new properties in the process.As Vince Vaughn says in Wedding Crashers,....

I have noticed a re-occurring theme and a common complaint among them about a certain character trait.

The Monthly Bigger Pockets meetup is this Wed, 7p at Johnny's Irish Pub.

I'm starting to sense a theme with the multifamily properties and the people in the 'know'.

I am in the early stages of learning about real estate investing, and through the podcasts, webinars, books, one of recurring themes has been analyzing a lot of properties and eventually funneling that done into a small number of offers, knowing that at the end of the day, the result is likely to be one deal, possibly more if fortunate.
