I wanted to share a deal I recently closed on in Tulsa.This is a 25k sqft manufacturing building, as you can see, it has been added on multiple times. 

Maybe I am biased since I see and diagnose cancer in young folks all the time... but, money is easily made and easily lost (by newbies too), but time is not manufactured.

Industry = college, military base, refinery, shipyard, aerospace, manufacturing, etc. 

I'm a cost analyst in manufacturing and have an accounting degree and 30 years of business experience. 

The noticable difference though is that it has more of a manufactured look since there aren't as many inherent flaws as there is with real hardwood.  

Please don't post your scenario in this thread, use this when making your own thread.Your goals and story: What are you trying to accomplish, how are you trying to accomplish it, and what hurdles (if any) have you faced.Type of property: Single family home, manufactured home, RV/trailer, multi-family (specify unit count), mixed use (specify resi v commercial unit counts and approximate square footage distribution between the two), hotel, casino, mobile home park, other (specify).Location of property: State at a minimum, county better, city would be nice, zip code if you're comfy sharing. 

NC use to be the furniture capital of the world and Caldwell County is where a lot of the manufacturers where based.

It will be fine, there's a big financial, medical, business and manufacturing sector that operates outside of O&G. 

Amazon is opening a new distribution center, the Air Force Base is expanding bringing in more jobs and the service members family members, there's even talks of Boeing opening a manufacturing plant here. 

I love this market because as has been mentioned here the fundamentals are strong, by which I mean there's a diverse economy characterized by durable industries including tech, healthcare, manufacturing, distribution, etc, there's population growth with young professionals moving into the city, the cities are walkable and well planned, there aren't natural disasters such as hurricanes, fires, earthquakes, etc, to worry about, and the quality of life is generally high.
