Or an old truck? I really love both. And the fact that it’s cheaper to run a 50 year old un-tuned V8 here than a brand new Volvo Diesel back in Europe makes it even more appealing.
We drove out to a place he has on the gulf here in central Florida. As we got there he told about the house with it’s dock and deep sea access. According to him, he overpaid for it back in 2007 and it wasn’t until now he started seeing a chance of making some money on it.
It’s fun, but really, really hard to get some good stuff. And when I do, it’s something like the photo above. It looks nice, but it’s something that’s been done a million times before.. Same with the two photos below. I like those, but not very unique. Still! I feel good trying to get better at it. In time I’m sure it’s going to be pretty fine. I guess that’s one of the perks with starting out as a real fool with real poor photos. It’s easy to get better :)
City planning, or Zoning is when the local politicians decide how they want an area to look. They decide if they want residential or commercial buildings. How high the houses should be and sometimes even what colors your place should be painted in.
This guy here in central Florida made a really inspiring deal. A big piece of land was up for sale on a really good location. It was about an acre big on a well thought after address. All the land around it had been developed with upper class neighbourhoods and the margins for building something new here would be great!
But there was a problem. The land had been used as a dump. Back in the day they called it landfill. What it means is that they just dug out a big hole and filled it with garbage. As a result, there were major settlement issues and heavy regulations against it so now people will probably ever live on this piece of land.
The weather yesterday was everything but inspiring, so good thing there is inspiration available elsewhere :) I spent all day to study real estate on my computer. I'm not a…
