Her daughter lives with her, but her part-time work at Starbucks doesn't pay enough to make a great impact on paying the bills.The oil tank that supplies this tenant's unit needs to be replaced.  

Just like illegal oil, chemical dumping in the oceans.

For the beginning investor or someone like me who was strongly considering paying to became part of a very well marketed/oiled Education company it can save a lot.

Commodities, like pork bellies or oil, or gas enter an area of the economic structure that go beyond a simple two party transaction, which is why they are regulated, the same is true in real estate.

Im currently employed in the oil industry and I want to invest my time in something that will actually give me all the freedom I want provide me and my family with a better future and better opportunities.I'd love to network and meet people so I can learn, grow and help others.

@Dan Oliver why not work with an agent...

The Energy Cooridor is a stretch of I-10 from roughly Beltway 8 to Highway 6 where a lot of Oil & Gas company corporate offices and related industries have taken up residence.

Oliver, that would be great to compare interests and to compare real estate stories.
