Replying to an ancient post.

There's a saying about Greeks: shake hands with one of us and count your fingers afterwards.Perhaps this is why I treasure the value good men put in that handshake in America.

Through my SH appraisal practice, I was aware that the State of IL had passed a statute requiring all Greek organizations live in housing with fire sprinklers by Jan. 2019.

Well I am an accountant that started with using Yardi Enterprise (discontinued and it is ancient software).

If I was older I would've kept running on 1031s so my heirs could inherit stepped-up.if your seller isn't ancient, SF is a way out that at least spreads the tax hit out nicely.

I do have one client who buys around Dryden and Cortland- on the other side of Cayuga Lake- to pick up business from Greek Peak resort in the wintertime.

(If you go that route we have worked with a couple of good builders and can share the contact info) That said, there are other locations where you can get a 4-bedroom villa for less or a similar price point.For example, the Tulum National Archeological Park is a project that just got announced (Parque del Jaguar) is a federal park with 1,000 federal protected hectares (2471.05 acres) (just to give you an idea Central Park in NYC is only 843 acres), it will have jogging and bike trails with views to the Caribbean, ancient Mayan ruins, 7 new beach accesses, a pier for boats in front of the lighthouse of the park, plant nurseries, viewpoints, butterfly farms, and cenotes.

Didn't realize this thread was ancient.

I know some of the ancient houses might have many potential problems.
