And I know that the tourism infrastructure (restaurants , activities) has some catching up to do aside from the new casino that is opening up.

I mean I was in Oregon and bought 13 new construction homes down there for the tax bene's it had to be new construction.. so it really boomed the area.. all the Casinos got the huge write offs car dealers all built new facilities office and retail went up all over the place.. it worked.. maybe something like that would work on a national scale..

I had two try this one us and we just said no and they clsoed anyway.. we had a sale yesterday to a hedge fund that closed with no hitches we have one today in Vegas were we had a FHA buyer  the only issue is they had to get a letter from their employer that they will be back to work once the 30 day closure of all Casinos' is over.. so thats closing today with no concession.. 

I'm looking forward to having another sophisticated investor nearby to learn from and work with :)I was thinking we begin our first meet-up midway through January on Wednesday the 14th.

Everyone has their own things that they splurge on - travel, casinos, designer wear,etc.

You would be hard pressed to find a more hands off easily accessible and available to anyone with cash and a willingness to educate yourself a little so that you could pass muster as a sophisticated investor as defined by the SEC.

I stay out of casinos. 

Where as that buyer has another level of sophistication and 9 times out of 10 they will just buy a 50 to 100 unit MF> that leaves some of the hedge funds that are still buying these and let me tell you they will beat you up on price. 

If you have the cash and are at least sophisticated their are deals out there for you.

Over the years I've worked with clients ranging from first time home buyers to sophisticated investors.
