Hitting snag with Gov't bureaucracy in permitting

We loose almost all of the site line if my neighbor decides to put up a sign, plant shrubs, let their tree overgrow, etc. and this is in the riskier direction from our stand point.Our argument was that we have 400' in the direction that has a flat straight away (theoretically faster traveling traffic) and have 3xx' in a direction that the traffic is traveling up hill with a shorter stopping distance and time, most traffic will be coming off of an Interstate off ramp which in theory they would be well under the speed limit when as they approach our property.To answer your question: I am undecided if I will do more development projects.

Quote from @Jason Watson: Other people in the lending space might have better answers, but some lenders quote taxes, insurance, etc. to fully understand the monthly cash burden and ensure you know it as well. that is correct Jason, I personally like it better like that so I can actually see what my payment is after everything is said and done.

However, (personal opinion) I do believe that the Beltline represents a real, physical asset that will help values stay strong in the long term (assuming you don’t overpay).

B grade property walks are attended by my children to run around and tell me which bedrooms they would pick if it was their home.43605, 43608, 43609 are the popular zipcodes for bottom-budget value purchases...I manage a ton in these areas and my personal portfolio contained over 40 43608 properties at the peak. 20% of these properties will be crazy money earners, 20% will be astounding money pits, and 60% will fare average.I have evolved into the nicer 43612/43613 for my personal portfolio and find the properties earn consistently and far smoother than my 43608 houses. ($80k renting for $1200 vs $40k renting for $800 multiplied by the ratio above vs boring consistency of the nicer area) Oh and I have zero excitement for apartments.
