I was looking for an individual that may have more experience in my specific market that can offer suggestions or advice with my projected plans. 

Don't forget we're talking about a startup plan and for this member, he was already stating Baytown as an "upcoming" area because of his own research or information withheld, because it is not a bad area to start your portfolio.

You can buy under that limit if you plan to use all cash, and it seems to work pretty well. 

Let them know - as specifically as possible - what you are trying to achieve.

I may have stumbled upon a great deal but as I am not a professional or seasoned expert like most of you, I thought I would drop the numbers and plans here and see if I’m outside of my depth hereNear Clanton, Alabama I found a 4 acre lot for $100k.

Can’t comment on the this market specifically, but make sure to ask others who are more experienced WHEN they invested your area.

Our first plan didn't work and we would have had to take a loss if we sold it.

You need to screen them to make sure that they are not wholesalers though, unless that's all acknowledged and you plan on doing a jv.

This deal demonstrated the strength of our partnership with Fred and our ability to add significant value through strategic planning and efficient execution, highlighting Partner Driven's commitment to delivering outstanding results.

It is an older home and I know there will be some larger ticket repairs needed in the coming year(s) (roof specifically will likely need work soon).
