I invest in Jacksonville FL because my old job would fly me there multiple times a year so I learned the city over time.

Equity position has 3x'd over the last 3 years with improvements I have made and growing market).

Raleigh benefits from the Triangle's concentration of high-tech jobs which makes it a great investing area.

Fast forward 3 months and he has only brought me 2 applications, both of which were tenants without a stable job and horrible credit. 

. *** Improved: (a) vacant / rundown / board up: sold for 25-35% of the county appraise value. 

Sending every small job out to bid/quote is a waste of everyone's time. 

Great job guys!

This has led to a rise in property prices and an influx of people seeking job opportunities in the city.

There's so many catalysts for population and job growth (Intel, Honda, Amazon, Nationwide Hospital, etc).

If you negotiate land value and an experience investor comes across your deal he will try to knock it down in pricing due to having to improve the land and you wont have much a deal in your hands.
