Thanks Jay!

always enjoy your perspective, i don't know to many people that have the knowledge and wisdom that u have gained over the years.

Cash is $KING$

biggerpockets is still free and i'm not a big fan either.  There site is down, there server crashed the other day.  I'll have to check out somersoft. 

Well if you are going to end in Vegas it makes it kinda tricky.  I agree with start in Texas and San Antonio would be my top pick in that state.  Then drive from Dallas to Kansas City, isn't a bad trip and you can do in a day.  Skip Memphis and you can do Kansas City to Atlanta that's a trip.  I have done Kansas City to Tampa before with a co pilot and we made it in 20 hours.  Time is money and i would want to save some time doing some flying.  if you can get a good ticket from a website here.  That's a lot of driving when u could be using it at looking at investment properties or extra time in markets you like to see more of.  but it's a cool way to see the beautiful country here, i still enjoy a good road trip.  If u can spend some extra time in Florida it would be worth it during spring break.  A spring break in Miami blows Vegas out the water, but do both and and you will have some stories for ages, hahaha.  Oh ya, fly to Vegas from Miami that's to long a drive.  would be cheaper to fly than drive with rental cost and gas.  I agree, skip Cleveland

lol, man.  you will have to post a youtube video of you getting the tat and then jumping into a pool of cash, that would be a great in four face video for your website.  I know some good artist in Portland, hook you up with some real nice tat work!

hahaha, this forum is the best one i use hands down.  You don't get this good of content in the States.  I agree a lot with what lawsjs is saying and Jay's type of investment is a good deal.  If i could get over the fact that i don't get to hold the note for the property.  If I'm wrong on some stuff i say, Jay u will have to cover for me.  I read over your investment you offer a while back.  The ROI isn't what some people wanna see but the risk to reward is the factor.  It's safe and pays great numbers compared to anything else investment wise. Especially with the sharing of the appreciation at the end of the investment.  Same with Alex, that post he did of a local deal is sharp and looks solid.  Both are good investments, but i would take what Alex's is offering cause that's the type of deal i would do myself.   50,000K (rough numbers, i don't wanna go back and reference, ha) with excellent rents and great potential for appreciation to at least be double in 7 to 10 years.  I defiantly agree on the time frame with Alex, the gov pumps the media to make things look rosey here, lol.  I am thinking i will have to stop in Charlotte on my way back from Florida sometime and get one of those 67 that you have for sale

@ Engelo

just shot me an email or leave me a message on Facebook and we can chat brother.  The time difference makes it tough when i get busy and can't stay up as late. 

Curious is to what area code your house is in, hope its not 64130. 

I know hard money lenders in Kansas City and would do the loan through your business.  I am currently working on a 6 house deal from a hard money lender that doesn't know real estate, lol.  He is offering me 6 points and five years on 60,000 with 20 down.  Getting a good deal cause he has proven he doesn't have what it takes manage his cash flow portfolio.  The rents on two of the houses will cover my loan for the duration.   I'll ask him tomorrow and will  post for you what i find out.  If u haven't seen your house in person i hope u didn't get something from the dime a dozen turd turnkeys here.  worries me that they are rehabbing in the winter, i don't do any heavy rehab during the winters here.  just to costly and time consuming compared to the favorable construction weather in the spring. 

i let u guys keep the modest returns with low risk. 

NO! The buying opportunities need to last 5 years more
