Major employers are FedEx (Wolrd Headquarters), International Paper, casinos, Trucking/logistical companies. 

I would check to see about the recent sales activity and divesting of the Palms Resort and Casino to get a better idea of what's in store for the property as a whole.

@David Faulkner  guilty as charged... bought 3.5 acres in Rohnert park in 1995.. it was unbuildable but it was right behind a HOme depot and had a freeway interchange within 500 yards.. just brought into the city limits and zone mixed use resi.and the Graton casino is right across the street largest Casino in N CA.. they paid for the improvments of the road brought sewer water etc.looks like we will be developing this piece in 17 to 18' ..

The one market to avoid currently would be Atlantic City as unemployment and property values are reducing due to trouble with the major employers (casinos) in the area.9.

San Ysidro is the border town with Tijuana Mexico.Recently I received a Doctorate in Business Administration where my dissertation was in Cyber Preparedness.  

Maybe go bet on Red at the casino...least you go better odds at making money

They are also having a Cyber Monday sale.I hope this helps!

I take the other side of the gamblers bet so I'm more like a casino.

Any advice, guidance, mentoring and information would be most appreciated.I am a cyber security professional by trade and I have a full time cyber architect job and I've got two kids and a wife and lots of family around, so I need to make sure that investing the time and money in getting the Virginia real estate license is worth it.Thanks! 


these deals can take forever and a day.I own a 4 acre tract right across the street from the largest Indian casino in Northern CA  ( Graton Casino Rohnert Park)  have owned it since 1994.... there is 50 acres of prime development ground and 11 owners... when I went to a stakeholder meeting with the city.. it was evident that the majority were moms and pops that had NO CLUE about development and one would they think there land is good for this use.. ( which is not even remotely possible given the zone )  you have to fight these things... then one see a listing for dirt somewhere else maybe its a prime 1 acre corner commercial listed at 1 million.. they have 7 acres and jump right to the idea that their piece is worth 7 million...its this type of mindset that is dog tough in these situations..
