One word of caution, don't take a first job that is oriented around construction or construction management, I have found it very hard for folks to move from construction to development without some loss of career traction to do so.For example, I come from a family of real estate developers, but I was ambitious to learn rapidly and work for others in the multi-family development domain, so I obtained my first job (asst. project manager) for a division of KB Home (Kaufman and Broad Multi-Housing) that developed in-house apartment projects.

Also, it should be pointed out that this decision is not binding on other jurisdictions outside the Southern District of Ohio (although in my opinion this constitutes a strong precedent that is very likely to be followed by other courts).We will keep you posted on the future developments in this case, as well as the litigation pending against the City of Bedford.Legal articles provided in the OAR Daily Buzz are intended to provide broad, general information about the law and is not intended to be legal advice.

What specific projects or rehab forces $200-300k ARV (way to broad of an ARV, just FYI).

An opportunity to not lose money in the wide spectrum of real estate minefields out there.

These folks want a better return and have a minimal threshold of financial curiosity to compel them to learn more.And, there is a lot of in-between.I would probably fall at the end of the spectrum on total control.To compound is to minimize the number of years it takes to double my money.

I really don't want to sign up with spectrum or cable because it is so short term.

There's a saying in real estate "all real estate is local" If the local economy is solid, and broad based, if homes are more scarce and demand high, if rents are high, etc. those are the indicators to look at.

This is a broad discussion.  

You've provided zero information and asked a very broad question.
