New to site but very experienced in the business.

some of the biggest wealth in the US is generated by path of progress land plays usually the farmer seller to the developer.but I will give you a few of my personal land plays.1. 3.5 acres Rohnert Park CA.. when I bought it in early 90s it was unbuildable.. but it sat behind a home depot and I took a calculated risk.. now its been annexed into the city and zoned mixed use residential and sites right next to the Graton casino they built a few years ago..

I am currently a site supervisor for a site development and concrete company.

I don't know the group so can't comment, but the first rule to earn credibility on the internet and THIS site is to have a profile pic and enough posts for someone to gauge your intent.

Majority of the MLS systems I work with integrate directly with Zillow/Trulia, and some folks syndicate to hundreds of other sites as well.

Welcome to the site Jonathan.I'd suggest you follow through on the rental plan & scrap the wholesaling junk.

The way the site guides you right along the newbie path is absolutely wonderful!

If you think I could help you do or learn anything, please contact me through this site. 

WordPress would be more affordable than a custom site. 

Without a homestead exemption on the property (only available if it is the owner's primary residence) the tax rate will be approximately 2.7% (I looked this up on the Williamson County Assessor's site and it depends on the MUD, Hospital District and School District you fall into) which would be $4,050/year or $337.5/month (this may not get reassessed until next year since it is a new build and this is assuming that you will get a valuation of only the $150k not the appraised value of $168k).
