I will now begin shopping for land . . .

http://jamespublishing.com/shop/the-limited-liabil...That's one of the sources I use to draft LLC agreements.

As stated @Ryan Kopczyk from Southeast Professional Title is definitely your go to guy for closing any type of deal you need.We can go for coffee and discuss shop talk when it would be convenient for both of us. 

I am looking at a deal in Galveston County (normally I shop in Harris County) and was trying to access the county records from Galveston County Appraisal District website.

It is set up for a hot dog or sandwich shop and previously rented for 600 (way low for the space).

@Deano Vulcano  based on whats happening in Charleston If I was going to make a move to any market in the country right now.. that's were I would go and set up shop... for many reasons.and its a really cool town... !! 

Whenever, I've tried to comparison shop, most other insurance companies groan when I answer what company I'm with now (good sign in my opinion).  

I'm also here in Little Rock and would love to get together with you some time and talk shop.  

Do your due diligence and shop around for a lender that will best work for you.  

My original thought for a scenario like this would be to flip - clear up the property and sell it at a profit (in 1 to 10 years as you mention, while paying holding costs)One other idea I had was to try and rent the space out to one or more of the several auto repair shops that are in an area that relies on street parking.I know these cannot be the ONLY avenues to making a profit in this scenario (just like in the world of 'buildings') so I was hoping I could get more ideas/suggestions from some of the many savvy and creative investors on the board here.
