And I look to go where I have boots on the ground.

Have you done a ground up construction project? 

It meant that even in Cambridge, there was blood on the ground over this battle for AFFORDABLE HOUSING, the holy grail in my fair city!

You probably wouldn't like my "hood" back in the 80s but now tears-downs are $900K+, as Manhattan cap rates fell.Put feet on the ground and stop watching Fox News.

You have a very creditable back-ground and you will be a very profitable asset to many of the BP members.

This gave me the exposure to all aspects of a development deal on multiple larger ground up development deals.Your likely job title will be: assistant project manager, analyst, development associate.

I would love advice on if this is a bad idea, if I should institute ground rules, or if I need to have people sign an additional form to use it.

Once the final unit is turned and rented, a big focus is to heavily utilize the boots on the ground team that I have built over the past year & implemented systems to efficiently operate this property from Tewksbury without going to Leominster much at all.

Networking with local ReI is an option but be cautious as it has become common ground for sales pitch, some times irritating if you don’t want to get into early commitments.

Then take out the loan from the bank jointly (so your boots on the ground guy has some sort of skin in the game) secured against YOUR asset.
