She had to be rescued by boat.

I am in a similar boat (27 at the moment) with 50+ doors (including a handful of commercial investments).  

For the record it looks to be a late 80's model Catalina 22 sail boat.

Which as stated is about as tough to break into as anything in this bizzness since there is no leverage and it requires a boat load of cash.. its not a smoke and mirrors talk some little old lady into selling her house for less than its worth  LOL.. here we simply buy assets at the sheriffs sale no mystery just as I said a lot of leg work and you must have ALOT of cash to make a business out of it.. and I am not talking hundreds of thousands in my mind to make a business if you cant put 5 million in cash into play your not going far.. because other than your mom and pops that's what the other pro's have to work with.

I would also focus on outside storage as that's an easy layup especially if people have boats (or park extra cars) in your market.

I was in that same boat, not too long ago.I hope that for anyone who reads this, they are motivated, inspired and find this story helpful.Who am I and why am I qualified to write stuff on this wonderful forum?

I'm in a crunch to get a house ready for market right now so no boating for me for a bit. 

Finance your house, car, boat, motor home, carpet, furniture, jewelry, HeckI even saw an ad to finance a safe!

I have been building about 30 homes a year in Oregon .. it can be done but yoiu need a boat load of capital and you need uber ability to finance.. if you have no experince this simply is not possible..

To me, $40 sounds very cheap, I paid more then that for outdoor storage on a fishing boat before.
