I'm a cross border real estate attorney with clients in HK.

I think speculating on amazon would be a huge gamble at this point.

So the land is located near the border of Trotwood. 

For the back patio maybe just do a simple gravel patio or decomposed granite with a paver border.

If you, based on market indicators, believe that there will be appreciation then hold on however we all know that's a gambling mans game. 

I just checked and we don't have those Hampton Bay cabinets at our Home Depot, but we are a border town, so I would have to see what the exchange would be to order a product like that and bring it over.

Deja vu from 2005-2007..........Yes, you need to leverage your equity to keep moving forward....wont argue that....but to pull out ALL your equity to go buy more properties in a very high market, sounds like a huge gamble to me..... use the leverage....hell yes.....but using ALL of your equity is a huge ALL IN bet..... you better be able to back it up if there is a big correction......Guess I'm just a wimp.....hope you are right.......

NYC is constantly expanding its borders.
