When it comes to business Rich, I am someone who can be counted on to create growth and increase value.

@Kathryn Krueger Germantown has seen a ton of growth and I've moved some inventory up there.

Projected rent growth for the area is another metric as well.You could start out with a lower return to begin with but an area experiences much higher rent growth and you surpass the initial higher cash return another property you were considering was throwing off. 

No job growth.

In fact, in almost ever place in the country that has an influx of people moving too it, economic growth and all around desirable place to live people are buy, hence driving up the prices and making the 1% rule even harder.

The only way you’re going to find emerging growth opportunities is through research.

I love parking.Investing in parking can see 8%-15% returns on their investments including growth of the real estate itself. 

Thus in order for the private sector to grow the government must go into deficit, granted the spending must be efficient.

Investing in Indiana for instance has some benefits for sure but the potential growth there is far less than the upside of a Chicago property in 10 years.

I want to build a multi-billion $ enterprise through real estate and then shift into tech, (possibly real estate in space if the tech is there in a couple decades) so everything I read I think about in terms of systems and growth and sustainability.
