@Shiva BhaskarWhen you walk on the wild side, sometimes you wake up next to a shaved orangutan.

- for an underground oil tank that was already removed but that was just never closed with the contractor or seller?

Ultimately: I'm trying to make money - so I need to find the market I want to work in, and the best strategy for that market.Here in Calgary the median house price is 525K - but with the price of oil that's going t drop.Maybe/probably there's better markets in the US.  

With that being said, in my opinion, these market shave great companies to look into for building your portfolio.You've already heard a lot about Ohio.  

Some areas may have restrictions that could complicate things, particularly around who can provide alcohol and to whom.If wine isn't an option, you could consider alternatives that are still local and personal, like a handcrafted bottle of olive oil from a local farm or even a basket of locally sourced snacks.

If you don't plan to enforce it, then get rid of the rule.The entire house needs to be deep cleaned, then you paint with an oil-based primer to seal in the odor and nicotine.

Or figure out how projects are developed and get one "most of the way" (land leased, site planned, permitted, power purchase agreement signed) and then sell the deal to a big developer.My perspective: My W2 for the last 8 years is environmental and development consulting for oil & gas, renewables generation, transmission, and commercial RE development.

Kind of like car salesman who cant change their own oil or never flip their own cars

The United States is one of the few Countries in the world that allows a private citizen to make this kind of Investment.Join us on Dec 14th at noon for an educational webinar on an alternative, non correlating Investment with your self-directed IRA.The Webinar will be given by Gary Messineo, a General Partner of LMH4 an Oil and Gas rights acquisition fund.

And then there is oil.
