I grew up in a small farming community (7 churches, 0 bars) just south of Fresno, CA.

The only way a minister can not pay property taxes on his home is if it is owned by a tax exempt organization, such as a church.

Remember the area well..did my masters at GWU and studied vienna and falls church developments as part of it.

There is a small church right across the street.

As you may know, the main site with info is loopnet.com There are two sites, one dedicated to mobile home parks, and the other, to rv parks; some of which have members that stay for months or years, and even other facilities on hand.My current project, in Spokane, is getting a SFH, and working with my church, to covert it into a transitional group home.

Mrs. seller, I get your cash flow much like an annuity from insurance company, where you get a cash flow payment for a period of time, and the cash flow would come in every month the matter what.And if you plan it correctly, this cash flow will continue even after your death, which would be a benefit to whoever you chose, whether it be a church, or your children, or any good cause?"

Last year I brokered a deal with a church where I lease space from them, rehabbed the space, then sublease to a video production company.

Bonus points if they have experience appraising churches.
