It's been an interesting ride thus far. 

I don't know if the 34747 zip code is as important as it used to be, but the ability to ride a bike to Animal Kingdom is pretty cool.

Most of them have all 3 meals at the house unless they make takeable food for riding on the boat.

South Bronx is changing and easy train ride.

Helicopter ride to the ICU, the works.More important than anything, everybody healed with no hard feelings. 

I sometimes have to ride the realtor to change something or get an update as opposed to the flat fee broker I get fast results with a simple email. 

If you bring a verifiable deal to someone with capital or experience, you'll get a seat on the bus ... it may not be a very big seat, but you will be able to see all the action and learn.Another way to get to ride the bus - standing only - is to work for someone with capital and/or experience and be their gopher/office boy/driver/whatever that allows you to tag along, work for your keep, and learn.

Or do I have to ride it out until the end?

There may be some small appreciation coming our way near term though, with the huge boom Seattle has been going through and the fact that nobody wants to drive in Seattle means a trickle down effect in surrounding areas and a ferry ride is a pretty good commute option for people.  

I think the zoning of the property will be a bumpy ride so just be prepared to obtain financing residential or commercial.
