hi bp community! 

Hello BP community!

Hello BP Community,I too found some lots mostly in moderate to low-income neighborhoods.

Welcome to the community Jose and see you around the forums

Hey BP Community,Long story short... before BP I received some "bad" counsel from a CPA to put our properties in an S-Corp instead of an LLC (properties are in Sacramento California if that matters).Fast forward 5 years and some of the properties have almost doubled in value.  

Now of course it's ideal to get rid of a blighted home in a community, but you at the came time, create one less home for someone to live in if it were fixed up.
