In India we do land development in Chennai and looking to venture into commercial real estate as well.It would be great if you can share some of your real estate experience both in India/US.GS

It takes time to build like any other worthwhile venture.

Welcome to BP Mark Saxon Good luck on your new house and your investing ventures.

But I guess i should stick to something smaller for my first venture anyway.

Some items I would even venture to be a little more conservative in (e.g., 15 years is plenty long to drag out a sub $20,000 note.)
