I am here to pay it forward so reach out if there is some info or maybe connections you may be looking for that may move you along faster.My first property I bought was 10 acres with power and no water, bought it for 30k sold it for 50k, I was hooked after that, just kept repeating the process. had a good mentor at the beginning.Good luck here hope to see you around!

Intent plays a big role.

Quick math says it plays and should consider further dissection.

The issue now seems assembling my power team. 

They are just as bad as cars - after they're off the lot they lose a hefty % of their value.I have been doing land home deals similar to @Curt Smithand do everything in my power to close under 20K and put under 10K into them before renting out the homes - eventually establishing credit for the tenant and selling it.  

Better check what is your local ordinance before you play this game. 

I'm a LCAM & Realtor in Florida, so I can't speak to CA law.However...I sense two issues at play here. 

Even the psychological warfare of Taylor Swift being played loudly at 2am. 

Let us know how this plays out!

For example- pull up Zillow - enter Fresno in the search field, and play with it.
