Comps, zestimate, etc.) you employed), Distributions (how investors get paid back), and any other Notes that may apply.I'm liking some of these more conscice, online methods over the more traditional but vebose, textual, "3 ring binder", more formal presentations I've done in the past.Example: http://patchofland.com/investments/beautiful-suburban-georgia-rehab.html

I'm a noob from the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area!

to be on the safe side, i would say 35k.This home is located near Union Street near downtown Concord, where there are some of the most Beautiful Historic I have ever seen.I got in touch with the owner and made an appointment.Here is the situation.His wife passed away about 6 months ago after 40 years of marriage.

It's a frugal way to invest and you certainly won't win any beauty contests but I want to be able to undercut EVERYONE should the need arise.

@Doug Merriott I thought I did my research but now that I think of it I was primarily searching for the property address from the tax collector site, solely focused on what was going on with the house,got her full name from there, went to the clerk site, and didn't really think there was a major red flag because nothing immediately tied to that property.

While Tulum and the Riviera Maya have deployed many efforts to be not about just the beach, most visitors wouldn't go if it wasn't because of the area's beautiful beaches.

Already they are trying to push you and they haven’t even signed anything yet is a big red flag 

A very beautiful zoo, in addition to having a lot of interesting animals.

There are already electric hybrids that use very little gas.More are slated for 2014 - 2015.If gas goes any higher and stays there it could be a death knell for suburban areas.More people will move to more dense urban living where they can walk and bike to work to reduce costs to survive.Used to there was a small class of the rich,a big middle class,and a small poverty class.Now the rich class is bigger,the poverty is bigger,and the middle class is shrinking into non-existence.Costs are going to rise and keep getting worse and worse.I want to be on the wealthy side.In many instances it is getting cheaper for me to eat out then buy at the grocery store.I can get a 3 course meal at Red Lobster for 7.99 and get 2 meals out of it.The restaurants are not having to raise prices at the rate of the grocery stores because alcohol sales drive most of the profits.If people think it is bad now it is going to get much worse.We need to stop depending on gas for transportation.It's a dead resource on it's way out.
