People pay thousands to learn what you had to learn the hard way.If you still have your health then you are golden.Try to sell on seller financing via lease option, etc Anyway, just get out of it.You also might want to attend local REI Clubs to see if any contacts can be made there.

Rents would have to be low.Or you could custom market to the health nuts.

More in car ins, health insurance, credit cards, loans....they will be paying sky high interest rates (more money for the credit industry).Oh and what happens to the millions of people that are being harassed daily with phone calls telling them what scum they are for not paying their bills, well....a good portion of them committ suicide.

You got the pizza, but missed alcohol consumption. http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/alcohol-abuse/news/20111013/as-economy-goes-down-drinking-goes-up

With regard to your dead end job...last year I left a really good job with health benefits and a great salary that I held for over 13 years.

@Sherwin Gonzalesmy biggest concerns for anyone ever trying to pursue unpermitted structures/units are the health/safety and insurance risks (not to mention everything else mentioned above).

A few other facts about me:1.I am very interested in health/fitness2.My wife is an engineer and part-time nutrition consultant (much more intelligent than me)3.Provide volunteer tax assistance for low income individuals & families4.Deleted all social media accounts last year and haven't regretted it5.Traveled to 14 countries last year during 5 month trip, also have road-tripped across US visiting National ParksLastly, for my initial investment, I'm considering Philadelphia (city I'm most familiar with)Tampa - have an Aunt who lives down there in Ellenton, FL and has 7 RE investments in this area.  

Well, make sure credit is good, review the business tax return for health of the company.

The health care sector continues to be the largest driver accompanied by the financial services sector.

I'm having a difficult time assessing the articles about Cleveland's declining population and overall low % of college graduates vs. articles like this touting the strength of the health care sector and potential for economic rebound.I would posit that one of the more beneficial things the city and most importantly inner ring suburbs (as city schools have a very poor reputation) can do is to continue to tear down abandoned housing.
