Had a buddy in the Air Force stationed at Luke at the time that picked up 3 houses, all 3 were 2000 sq ft, 3 bed 2.5 bath and 3 years old.

I helped start one a few years ago when I was stationed in KY.

Where are you stationed at?

The airways are "owned" by the public, regulated by the FCC and every TV station must apply for license for designated frequencies.

And if you have one of the newer large orbital models, it's reasonably close to being idiot proof!

He probably gets tens of thousands of dollars per episode from the station.

You don't hope and pray to find a gas station along the way or hit the road without a spare and tool kit.

I'm not trying to do that, regardless of how many train stations and light rails it has or how close it is to NYC.So ultimately, my long term goal is to make a profit, not stay close to where I grew up.

I currently have a Seller and his Tenant (Property Owner & Gas Station Business Owner) accept my Letter of Intent and I literally only gave them $25 each ($50 total) as my option period fee to do my Due Diligence for 30 BUSINESS DAYS (which translates to about 6 Business Weeks). 

I was raised near Waco, TX, went to school at Texas A&M University in College Station, TX, and currently reside in Houston, so I still need to determine in which market I want begin investing.Until I find a deal and get in the game, I'll be saving up money for a down payment and looking to learn as much as possible from the community here at BP.
