I stream them from my iPhone on the way to/from work and when doing yard work around the house.

I currently work and reside in central NJ, and this is where me and my partners (my husband and brother-in-law) are seeking to invest.

I do the administrative work for the farm, some volunteer work, and miscellaneous other stuff involved in keeping our lives on track.

Whether it be for via a mental hold or a civil standby where we sit there and babysit while you do your work and she throws a fit.

I have learned a lot about neighborhoods and construction from my work and I think that will help a lot in purchasing deals.  

Ultimately, we'd like to retire at a reasonable age, travel, have a legacy that teaches our kids about hard work AND money as well as continue to invest indefinitely. 

A wise investor will not try to get rich quick with shortcuts.

I'll be staying in Stockton for work, and will be meeting up with @Erin A. for a Stockton Meetup, along with anyone else who wants to join..

To your defense though, I'm not going to see those cap rates in the Orlando market either - and you might see higher cap rates on average in good Chicago neighbors compared to Orlando... but when the entire metropolitan area is bursting with growth like Orlando or Tampa... where as a whole, people are leaving Chicago (and the midwest in general) I just don't know if it's a good trend.Sure if your goal is strictly cash flow and holding for the long haul Chicago can definitely work and I'll probably eventually figure it out and invest here myself...

Thanks for the diligent work and relevant context!
