Thank you for your service to our country!

In that instance you are left without your money and without any asset, this happened across the country in '07-'08. 

Our next meeting is on 3/17 at 6:00 pm at the El Camino Country Club.

Cap rates have compressed across the country.  

@Derek Woods When you say duplex, do you mean half the duplex or both units... in different parts of the country they use Duplex, semi detached, and half a double, all to describe the same type of 1 unit SFR.What is the value when this is all fixed up and in great shape?

There are always deals to be had, but I can tell you that many of the "rules" people post about, as it relates to purchasing an investment property simply don't work in this part of the country, given that it's probably only behind San Francisco, LA, NYC, and Seattle when it comes to real estate costs.

It actually ended up looking really nice in a country casual sort of way.
