Hi Everyone,I bought my first piece of real estate in the summer of 2014.

Was personally less than I wanted, but since I already have leases signed for 2016-2017 school year at 2k a piece, I just wanted to get the deal done. 

I have never bought a blank lot before and I know there is a lot of language that can be added to standard Ohio contract to ensure just not buying useless piece of land such as it is zoned correctly, soil is good, able to get parking variances etc.

I woudn't work with him as both -- either he's a builder (in which case he gets paid a fee to build the house) or he's a partner (in which case he gets equity in the deal).And who is the third guy getting a piece of the pie?  

Or will they look at it only as when the last piece is bought?

There you can enter your zip code to find other Bigger Pockets members near you.Also, as a new member one of the best pieces of advice I received was to set up some "Keyword Alerts" to get into conversation in your target area.

.- Get out my direct mailer to SC/NC, 1000 pieces every month to multifamily owners.- Aquire 500 more units for my portfolio.These are some of my goals, I wanted to share with the bigger pockets community.

The best piece of advise I can give is to:  Know your numbers and set realistic expectations.  

-Christopher Why would you be proud that the market perceives your property as a piece of crap?

Does anyone have their company letterhead on their yellow paper direct mail piece?
