I am a father, friend and baseball development coach.  

Sometimes development can actually be a bad thing. 

The angle lake light rail station is one of the newer stations so I'd be curious if the station will bring in lots of developer $.

I hate these lessons and the thieves that teach them, but one day you will be able to identify potential problems in partners or in a potential deal because of this thief and this experience will end up saving you much more than it has cost you.

You know, the funny thing is, I'm told this seller has been a developer of houses and small multifamilies in the area for many years.

It’s not only note investing but I see a lot of posts on here and some of my favorites are:1. what book should I read to buy a 100 unit apartment building” when they have never been a landlord 2. how do I subdivide and develop a parcel of land and how much should I budget when they have never owned anything. 3.what should I do with my $100k. 4.

So much in fact, that it just so happens that I actually teach a 3-day class specifically on Self Storage Development & Conversions.And since I especially want to toe the line in regards to how much promoting we can & should do on this Bigger Pockets Forum, please PM me if you'd like more info. 

@Oles Street Educate yourself, network with other investors, identify your target market, work with realtors to find properties, do more networking, build your team and make a leap to buy that 1st property.

Dave, I love working with newbie agents, they haven't developed as many bad habits yet. ;)If you are in or around Ocala, I am adding new members to my brokerage literally this week and again in August.

Ritch I saw you questions and I am looking to learn from the group, develop myself so I can be effective in real estate investing, and one day help new investors out like me.
