Boldly Live Where Others Won't: An Introduction To Urban Pioneering

Boldly live where others have fled, and make some money while you're at it. This book is for the visionaries who are truly willing to live their dreams, and to help make communities and neighborhoods safer and stronger in the process. Discover the rewards and learn to handle the challenges of living and owning property in America's undervalued markets-primarily inner-city neighborhoods and small towns on the "cutting edge" of rebound. Examine your wants and needs to determine if such a unique adventure is suited to you. Learn how to find the right property-the "diamond in the rough"-and how to finance it, rehab it, and live in it. Take advantage of bargain multi-unit deals in these overlooked areas and learn to become a responsible landlord while enhancing the quality of life for you, your tenants, and your community. Readers will gain the knowledge to create for themselves a more meaningful life, home, and environment by mastering the brave new world of urban husbandry.
