Trucks that have the call to action on the back generate more calls as well because people sit there looking at the "sign" (back of the truck) in traffic.I've gotten more people to ask me about my business (e.g., standing in line at a store) when I wear a SHIRT or JACKET with the business name on it.  

I also sit down with the tenants while signing the lease and have them initial, in blue ink, the "hot buttons", i.e.: no pets, maintining property appearance, etc.

But it has been sitting for 200+ days now.

I have a tremendous amount of personal connections, but feel the need to conquer some business independently before sitting down with them.

This will be the second year that we have paid taxes on land that is just sitting there not making us money...Im not cool with that.Any ideas would be great.

How long do houses in the area sit on the market that are for sale at those prices?  

We look forward to sitting back and learning as much as possible.  

But this $48k sitting a savings account would earn about $40/month.

I do recall people in Vegas were the banks were doing big time drop bids.. they would do a strategic default then have a schill show up and buy the home  then buy it back from them.. and there is another her in Oregon that I don't wish to make public.And I bought a property last year were the bank had fouled up the foreclosure in WA and then just sent the owner the deed.. he had not paid a payment in 7 years.. 

A sit down with your lawyer never hurts either.
