I won't even consider a buy-and-hold deal unless it generates at least $200 in monthly cash flow.

I don’t know what the owners bought it for, but from my understanding the property has been in their family for a few generations, so I imagine they got the property for dirt cheap.

Searching on "Real Estate" will generate plenty of options as does "Women" for professionals, empowerment, networking, etc.

Some, like with the great Depression and the 2008 government bailout of private banks and financial institutions, will make huge gains on this main event.We are in the position of helping our future generations, if we can remember what we each went through.

I think its important to also realize these are small business's in essence and investments wrapped into one.. so you have the business risk of government intervention ( we deal with this big time in the development world and on the investment side there is always risk when investing in anything that is to generate a return on your investment..

It's important to remember that i-Buyers were never in it for the ROI on resales but for the fees generated by mortgages through their affiliates.
