I have 40 acres of raw ag-adjacent land under contract at $88k, all cash from a traditional self-directed IRA. Low price point rural market, the kind of thing I look at all day. C…

My first rental closes in six weeks so I'm not buying this, but my agent sent me a listing to look at as a comparison and I can't make sense of it. Small two story, a hair salon o…

I have been saving toward a first purchase for two years and I now have two buildings I can actually see myself owning, in the same town, about a mile apart. The duplex is 315k. B…

Reading the buyer agreement my agent sent before I've toured anything. Two things I can't parse. First, there's a paragraph titled protection period. It says if the agreement expi…
I pulled $92k out of a refi on one of my small buildings and I don't want it sitting in savings for another year. A guy I know locally does 4 or 5 flips a year, mostly 1950s three…
I mail land and small acreage, so this was a side experiment. I pulled the notices of default from two rural counties for the last 90 days, filtered to anything with more than 5 a…
