We own our properties in land trusts so if you look on public record, you won't see MapleStar's name anywhere and MapleStar Property Management LLC is the property manager.  

Always good to see someone else in the Northwest market.

And other amazing values.My dream is to specialize in land.

Regular homeowner insurance will NOT cover non owner occupied, non SFR rentals.You are fortunate to be in the pacific northwest - but NOT within city of seattle boundaries. 

I live in northwest Dallas County and I have a couple of freinds that live in Houston.  

We also do Northwest Indiana.

I don't know.. but what I do know is I would not do anything with any significant money unless I retained a local attorney in the market you want to invest in.case in point.. there was a big Timber deal being shopped in the north west in BAJA Norte  .. we were interested but its all in spansih and shoot I did not know.. and it was a big play multi multi millions with the need for roads and building a Mill etc etc.So I hired Mason Bruce and Gerard in CA ..

Todd, I'm not a developer but I'm in the industry offering software and services specifically in land development and thus talk to many developers, home builders, and investors so I hear a wide variety of strategies across the country. 

But if it provides a quick way to get from inland to the cities where the jobs are, it could make it a lot more feasible for people to commute in from the valley.If I wanted to really make a play on this, I would probably buy a big swath of land that is not great for agriculture (so can get a good deal on it for it's current low utility), that would have reasonable high-speed rail access next to an established city - maybe something like Merced.
