They have lots of demographic data that is helpful in evaluating an area.Lake Olympia  http://www.city-data.com/zips/77479.htmlSienna Plantation http://www.city-data.com/zips/77459.html1)  Before all these nice housing developments moved in, Missouri City was a somewhat low income area.  

Does anyone know a good source to evaluate a collection/sell to? 

You probably need to re-evaluate the "WHY" you are investing at all.

I will definitely look into coming to the meeting sometime, but unfortunately just looked at the post and cannot attend, I know I should have logged onto bigger pockets sooner!

I am evaluating a building with 15 studios right now and I have the same questions.

Additionally, it has a deed logging road, and has a transmission line touching the property in two spots with 3 phase power.Today the broker got back to us after we asked about solar power potential and he says the substation is away from the site (about 4 miles).

My grandmother own's two acres across the road from Norris lake and a log cabin kit from Lincoln logs international out of Kannapolis, Nc.

I believe you mentioned on a podcast to try the wholesale calculator, just leaving the fee at zero to evaluate deals...

Drop the gurus and pick up the real estate books or log on to bigger pockets!

I am looking for any ideas I can evaluate and present to this seller to make this work for both of us.
