We're actually working on a glamping development up near the Grand Canyon so not too far away!

I'm from the Rio Grande Valley in Texas and when I started looking at the inventory here, the prices and numbers agents gave me were insane.

Sorry for the scavenger hunt-esque answer.too funny my Grand parents had a cottage on Lake Poygan the next lake over.. would not think of that area for rentals..

Is there any builder direct to investors here around Kalamazoo-Grand Rapids, MI area?

I had probably a grand in attorney fees that was mostly to set up the condo plat and recording fees.

While $8k seems like a lot of money, in the grand scheme of things it's really a drop in the bucket (it's all relative). 

I'd recommend in the future open the box and look at the flooring. this unit looks great and should have no problem renting. if you hate the flooring so much I'd recommend negotiating a discount maybe 10-20% off but don't be shocked if that doesn't happen. in the grand sceame of your investment career this is nothing trust me. you'll be fine.

.,) and close to Grand Ave on the East Side of Price Hill.

When you have one party clearly in default who despite multiple notices fails to respond and/or to protect his/her position whatsoever... what's the point in forcing litigation over a couple grand?

In the grand scheme of things, brokers usually can get lending from anywhere in the country so being local is not really that helpful.Cheers!
