Thanks for sharing, will definitely check this thread to see your progress.

I have a flip progressing in Texas City. 

For the time being yes- but I anticipate looking farther north/south as time progresses.

You can progress so much faster that way once you encorporate frugality.

@Jeff McDermott  are you talking land in path of progress or land to be developed into housing or apts or commercial. what exactly is early state development to you can you be more specific

Keep us posted on progress, sounds like an interesting and exciting project! 

Should this progress to the point of me making an offer, it will be contingent on viewing all units.I will look up the purchase agreement.

@Michael Gatti hey mikeI'm very positive on philly right now myselfSome great gentrifying neighborhoods ( point breeze, port Richmond, brewerytown)I personally happen to like port Richmond and plan on picking up a few units in that neighborhood as the progression is heading up the river from Fishtown and nolibsIf you need any help feel free to reach out to me as I've spent a good amount of time in that area

I have no prior RE experience, but I have invested in REI education, and would like to find a local mentor to aid in my progression, teach me the proper ropes, and to help me get my business on a great and PROPER start. 

Also, as you can, feel free to share your stories and advice as you progress!
