The redemption period in Texas is only for 2 years on homestead exemptions, agricultural exemptions and severed mineral leases. 

China banned it and they are the largest miners of it, other countries that banned have some of the highest usage of it.

The water in the city where my apartments are located is said by area plumbers to be "good water", not full of iron or other minerals that might cause water heaters to go bad quickly, and that seems to be true since the old water heaters lasted so long.I've had an area plumber tell me that all tank water heaters in the US are manufactured by the same three companies (Rheem, A.O.

Thankfully I am not new to the industry or investing in general because I have experience in title research and in investing in oil and gas mineral rights.The first thing that sparked my interest was "Tax Deed Sales" because I can use my title research skills in that avenue and somehow that led to a google search and that led me to BP and a list of books to read about real estate so I bought all the books and am in the process of reading them (great books by the way).Here is my problem there are so many options out there: Tax Sales, Foreclosures, Buy and Hold, Buy and Flip, Wholesale, Single Family, Duplex the list goes on and on and on.

I personally always like to use an alkyd primer on exterior metal or wood, as I feel it bonds better but it smells and you need to use mineral spirits to clean up your tools and your hands (and anything else you got paint on).

I also am loving the Illinois riverwalk area on 61603 and some of the houses on Glen Oak.Pekin: I'm currently loving the area around Mineral Springs Park, the Meyer's Lake Area, and the northern section of North Parkway.

My boss/the founder of the company was actually just featured on a Bigger Pockets podcast where he discussed our syndications advisory business and how we are helping clients either exchange into or pay cash for equity in DSTs, Alts, and mineral rights.Here's a link to his recent BP pocast: Lower Taxes, More Passive Income with The 1031 Exchange - YouTubeThe syndications we offer are approved by our managing broker-dealer, so while I can't say much about yields or deal details on a public forum, we can certainly explain more about our vetting process for these funds on the phone. 

Have you considered either exchanging into a DST or selling and putting cash into a gas and oil mineral rights royalty fund? 

The miners don't use nearly as much electricity compared to BTC rigs, but it is a good way of adding additional diversified income streams to your portfolio.
