I used to be in the food business and worked for one of the largest franchisees in the Units States for Dominos.With the PJ's were you the contractor team constructing the buildings or did you buy the land parcels??

It is also the largest reason why title companies almost refuse to provide title insurance on these properties. 

I'm excited to learn more about investing in real-estate in NYC / Long Island.  

What island?

And the fact that the city is going through what I believe is the largest bankruptcy of any municipality in history has to create some cause for concern for how the city may decide to raise the revenues it needs in the future.If you go from paying 2k in taxes to 4k in taxes, thats an additional  165 bucks a month?

A few of my largest clients have Nevada Asset Protection Trusts which encompass a Series LLC which contains their business, real estate assets and various other holdings.

My office is one of the largest brokerages for government and bank owned properties in Chicago.
