Hadn’t been on in a while either, and just saw that the app is no longer available! I always preferred the web/desktop version anyhow, but the app was convenient for conversations!

@Paul Rojas love most of the state. Still plenty of wide-open land as well for the people that prefer farm or ranch living!

@Jay Garrison false. You can also just looked them up online with your local contractors board. If they’re not sharing it, they don’t have one. They’d be eager to get the deal!

@Colby Valladares Spokane seems to be hot and much more investor/landlord friendly

@Mike Hern thanks for the clarity! I’ve got a lot of friends and heard very similar things. Most of the people that I know who really love investing are over on the east side, smaller towns, drier climate, better prices.

@Stefan D. Brave soul! We are looking at Pittsburgh and other area markets as well. Not the most expensive education ever, all things considered!

@Candice Scales I think the reasoning behind this is primarily because most people, especially distressed sellers, are more likely to both open the mail and want to work with somebody when it’s more personal versus what could be perceived as a big faceless company.

Hey, fellow Santa barbarian! Where are you investing at? I understand your pain of student loans, like many of our generation, we were sold on a very potent mythology that any college degree would lead to increased success in money making power. I got my degree when I was almost 30 years old, during the years of the great recession. I’ve had a small stint as a business owner which started setting myself in the right direction financially, then got sucked back into the undertow of it long-term critical illness - without insurance. With or without a college degree, real wages have stagnated or dropped since 71, when we left the gold standard. Yes, we have to hustle and grind at times, but that was what we did when we took on a university degree with the promise of something better on the other side, which didn’t manifest for the vast majority of us that I’m aware of. Best of luck to you, I just sent you a friend request love to chat. I am doing all my investing out of state, California is becoming a worst nightmare to live in day by day. Reconsidering a business that I was about to purchase here.
