After a few months with no luck I decided to extend my search north to the Temecula area.

Also listen to podcast number 210, it features a young couple from north Jersey who discuss how they bought their first property 

Just this week I worked on 8 on the North side, a vacant on the North side, 52 on the South side, a duplex on the South side and another 7 in Champaghne.

Hi Salvatore, i'm looking into Atlanta's market around metro or north atlanta where cap rates are good.

I just mention those as andidotal stories because I like to tell stories and I have been developing land since the late 70s and I have a lot of them.In CA it can take decades .I just did 7 lot split in North  Charleston SC and that was done in 120 days start to finish.. but it was on existing streets.... so just platting.I have a 23 lot project in Portland going right now... we will put the first stick in the ground 2 years from when I went into contract.. we started the underground in July and will pave next week.to be fair we have had a brutual winter .. and my excavator failed a Sewer pressure test and had to replace 300 ft of main line ( on his dime).. but with those two things we are 3 months longer than we like and with a 1.2 mil loan even at 6% its 20k in extra holding cost.When your doing development any dollars less than 100k are just small bills  LOL.

Looking for good wholesalers preferably in the North Charlotte area.

Hey Allen, I'm a newer investor as well who is preparing to invest in the Fishtown/Port Richmond areas in Philly, but as an out of town investor (North VA).

Hi @Lacee BeitlerI know/have talked to a few people doing this recently, but to be successful it seems to need to be near the light rail line, the North Side (for sporting events), or in South Side/Lawrenceville/Shady Side/etc.Also, just make sure you hold back the 7% tax.

Primarily, I have been looking in the South King County and North Piece County locations, but I'm certainly willing to follow opportunities.

I work in the north county area of St.
