I just hope to someday be in the same boat as you and enjoying the fruits of our labor.Take care and thanks again for the motivation!

My first job growing up was working at a fruit market across the street from my subdivision when I was 14 years old.

Hey guys, so I'm looking at a property, 4 family, that's been on the market for over a year. raw numbers look good, and its fully rented out.

We managed to get in a few years ago and got a deal but the recent attempts have not been fruitful.

I have no experience with development of raw land, and this will be my first real estate purchase.I know septic system varies a lot, which is why I'd like to know if anyone has experience with this in or near Joshua Tree, CA.

So I would say it gets easier as relationships bear fruit over the years and the systems created improve the process for all involved. 

@Brad France  well for a builder to close on it in 30 days in the raw state they would need to get  a SMOKIN deal.. 

Ask about seasoning period for refinancing a BRRRR property.By February 1, 2018… Complete a cash-out refinance on owned raw land to pay off higher-interest debt.By July 1, 2018… Purchase a small multiplex near my wife's office.By October 1, 2018… Complete renovation of multiplex.Move into least desirable unit of multiplex.Have tenants moved into most desirable unit(s) of multiplex.

(Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Akron are littered with negative population growth) With regards to your fear about the volume of rentals in the Columbus area, I would consider it as a percent of population verses a raw number.

For a raw newbie it is a big help.We continue to attend Lindahl's other events even though they are a pitchfest of his and others programs.
