Never travel outside the US or your State for that matter, to meet anyone.

When you are confident that something is a good deal because you know the risks and understand them, you know the hidden costs and how to calculate them, you know what makes a good deal and how to evaluate one, then move forward.

Current projects around Willits (in Mendocino) and southern Humboldt could cut travel time by 20-40 minutes when complete, making the drive up/down a bit less daunting.

Thanks @Robert Carl for the confidence boost!

I am confident that I can increase the value of investments within 3 to 6 mos by 30% to 50% -- and I have a proven record of doing so.My investment objectives are to use private investors for cash requirements, recover any of my own invested cash within one year, provide property management at no cost through the holding period negotiated with investors.

But, like I said, we're bringing the business we run and I'm 100% confident that if the arrangement works out we'll be able to consistently pay a mortgage out as well as show the seller that to confidence.But, well, it's not like I've been studying how commercial real estate works.

We plan to live very conservatively while traveling abroad with our children.  

Some people travel 2+ hours each way to attend a meeting.
