Coin machines?

@Steve Vaughan  does working my Kurieg machine count as brewing my own coffee?

If you have access to a CNC machine (TechShop, The Crucible since you're in Oakland), and several really good friends, check out WikiHouse at https://wikihouse.cc/ and let me know how it goes!

Most of them, it's either a cash out refinance from some other property, gift from family (which could be that cash out refinance on Mom's San Jose home purchased 20 years ago at the 1998 price), lucky IPO (if you want $10m, it's actually really easy to do: build a time machine and go become one of the first 50 employees of Facebook), etc.

Why sent DMM to some list when you have access to a lead generating machine (your website) to convert traffic into leads?

I am not a fan of coin opp servicing companies that let machines stay broke for a long period of time and then take a majority of the income for their poor service.Turning the property around will take at least 6 months since there is a lot to do.

But, they also became a fee machine.  

I wish there was a time machine I could jump into and go buy up all the cabins in Tennessee.

I have a customer that just had Verizon build a small cellphone receiver on top of the multifamily building that he owns which generates income for just being there. vending machines, billboards, ATM,  Who pays for water?

Your post implies you think you could buy it for less than a half million; you really don't need to rent out much of the space to make that a cashflowing machine, provided the renovations aren't too crazy.
