Investors are pitched deals ALL THE TIME and often the people pitching them are selling a lot of hot air, and so it makes it hard to know who to trust.People like to do business with people they know, like and trust... so my advice is to meet people face to face first, and find out what kind of properties they're looking for, what their experience level is, and see if there is any way you can be of value to them or anyone important you can introduce them to who can help them meet their goals.Then, it's a lot easier to "be heard" about the property you're selling, and those investors can return the favor by introducing you to anyone they know who might be interested in purchasing it.

That being impossible, I would call the coroner's office and get their advice; they are usually not in favor of human remains, even ashes, being disposed of casually.

I looked at a place there years ago, and I passed on it, though the numbers probably were not as favorable as yours. 

There is much to be said in favor of slow and steady.What creature in nature do you identify with in your investing?
