-How to set a strategic marketing plan for motivated sellers which includes direct mail secrets, internet marketing and bandit sign marketing.

Thanks for the suggestion.We are planning to self-manage our next property, so my preference is to live nearby.

@Evan LoaderThe way most syndications work is that there is a 5 to 10 year exit plan(normally 7 years).Those 6 years will normally operate and show losses.

I planned to develop another home in the back half but a contractor inquired about renting the lot for their construction trailer so I’m pausing my development.

a) You should say where you are if you want specific advice.b) The only work-around you'll get if you sneak around any Planning Dept is a hefty fine (in my experience)

To be honest, any advice on here, even from someone like me in the Chicago market, will not be specific enough for something like this.

I live in a condo located in Walnut Creek that I plan to rent out in the future.

This new construction home that I am planning to buy in a big neighborhood, however the street that the house is on backups to a gas station with the gas station being about > 500ft away with about a green belt of more than 50ft in between.

Do your research, develop a plan for the worst-case scenario, then give them notice.

My plan is to live in it for 1-2 years while house hacking one of the bedrooms.
