I am an Atlanta area (Gwinnett County) family-man and college teacher who wishes to take more control of my financial independence so that I can spend more time and money on developing my ministry.

I started with some money to invest, gained some knowledge and have developed management and investing savvy (skills) along the way.

Demand is only decreased by population loss. 

This seems like a population that could benefit from living in rental mobile home parks.Seems like you guys could set up some "Shabby" trailers on cheap vacant land somewhere at the edge of town (cheap taxes) and get the bus route to go out there to take them to work and shopping and fill a need.Sometimes people in Texas give older mobile homes away for the hauling.At $35,750 a year that's $3,000 a month Gross (with 3 deductions), they could afford to rent cheap trailers without Section-8.All you'd need is septic, electric and propane out there.A shabby rented mobile home at the edge of town is a lot better than living in the streets (supply demand),And it might cash flow attractively (with Class-D management issues of course).Just my 2 cents on this.Good Luck!

The defendants — Woodbridge, 281 related companies and Shapiro — did not admit or deny the allegations.Woodbridge, according to the SEC, told investors it would use their money to make so-called hard money loans — a type of expensive, short-term loan that’s secured by property and is often used by house flippers and other property developers.

The most common method of making connections is simply reaching out and asking for connections.The most successful investors are also the most efficient, and not only nail the follow up, but also take the time to really get to know and understand the ideal candidates for their next investing opportunity.Not all of us with the will and way have the means to develop a business idea to full potential.

We like to get some guest feedback from each house, and use that information to determine a theme, and inform the design process as we further develop the space.

Given that it is in the middle of the desert and less populated than Palm Springs, I'm curious if maintenance would be a big headache. 

My husband owns his owns business and I have an interest in investing (beginner); I would love to invest in a retail or mixed-use development property or maybe event start-ups, but it seems complicated and I would like to do it without getting a huge loan (for commercial).
