How do you guys hold your toys with wheels?

Every try taking a toy away from a baby?

If the buyer has big toys such as a boat, camping trailer, jet skis, etc..., being on a corner lot allows easier access to storing them 'out back.'

I have been thinking of starting up a investment company of my own.My strategy would be much different than others.I would simply want to do a land fund.I would go after commercial land that banks are selling for a very,very low basis.I already see these deals.These corners when the market comes back in about 2 to 3 years I can get a 200k to 400k for and buy for about 50k now.I would locate the properties and do the due diligence and then split the profits 50/50 when sold.Usually the properties have a dumpy little house to rent out to cover the property taxes and other costs to break even.You don't have the headache or risk of a rehab but you do have a longer holding time.Investors like land because if they are busy with their lives or other business it's not as intensive as cash flow properties.Anyways I am toying around with this idea.I have some money of my own and when I run out want to have partners to keep buying up more land.I am talking corner parcels already graded and cleared with utilities ready to dump cheap by the banks.

For our next deal (other than our primary residence), I'm toying with the idea of utilizing seller financing or a hard money loan to finance a rehab property that we aren't also living in.

In the private sector, you can do your job well, for a well-established company like Circuit City, KB Toys, Lehman Brothers, Saturn, or Gourmet magazine, and suddenly find yourself without a job for one of many reasons: changing consumer habits, a dramatic drop in revenue, new competition, reckless management decisions, or just bad luck.

I've pulled toys, rags, and toothbrushes out of slow toilets.If the water spins well, but still doesn't have a strong flush, your problem will be the drain line.

I get comments from coworkers, tenants, and random strangers about how I look 16 and shouldn't own property.I have wanted a Jeep as long as I could drive, now I have the money to have my toy, and to break it out on the trails as often as I want.

I was about to pull my straw out a few times, but I sold a lot of things/toys to get my priorities straight and things are little better now.

Alex It's your thread, so the temporary hijack will not be punished IMO.That dog is a Toy Fox Terrier, sometimes also called an American (Toy) Terrier.
