This has become the stumbling block for my plans.

(HUD Community Development Block Grants).

That means if you give something out at an event it has your logo and info on it, if you send an email, it has a signature block with your logo and info on it, if you have a company car it's branded, every time, without fail, everything you do is branded.

You might have to go outside your area if none are available.Credit goes up in 20 point block increments.

The VA loan will take longer to close (45 - 60 days) than conventional and can be a pain, they might also ask for a second appraisal paid for by the seller, try and hold out for a conventional offer at the same price, which can be closed as soon as 30 days. 

@David Krulac   that's what I love about your neck of the woods... out here title can go back years but many of the lot and block descriptions were created only 20 to 50 years ago then its back to the farmer... then Spanish land grants etc

We are all managers invested in the future of our company as association members.An individual Land Lord can't benefit from governmental community "BLock Grants", funding of rental updates through Foundations, and Grants.  

@Peter Sanchez I am a value investing enthusiast and 100% agree that stock market principals apply equally well here.On the other point, I think its important to point out that real estate really is not as indexable as other investments because of the vast differences even block by block, the inefficiency of the market, the fact that many buyers are not actual investors but utility seekers and that you control the asset in RE vs. stock market investing which means you can actually add value.

Keeping it very general, I am going to focus on locations on the beach/a block from the beach, and also properties within the vicinity of 2+ golf courses, as I believe they have the most potential.

The basement, like the one you saw, had several inches of water in it due to a large horizontal crack in the block foundation wall about 2 feet off the floor.
