got a friend at Cedar Creek Lake. owned 3 car washes/oil change places. Valvoline came calling. He sold them, retired very young. Golf and fishing is it. oh and drinking.

Once again nobody want to store a boat out in the sticks.

They want their boat near them, I guess you never owned a boat. You were saying boats and travel trailers and now you are changing your story. Those storage units out by the lakes are usually have no power and the facilities don't have concrete and just gravel drives and then seem to get broken into as well.

Like I said you need to get storage units inside cities, and fast growing cities where you put up the cash and wait for a while. You gonna need more bucks than you think to build one.

I had land in Aubrey near boat ramps on Ray Roberts, just because you have land close doesn't mean there will be major roads, most people take their boats with them to a lake.

Lake Ralph Hall will be a small lake under 8,000 acres it won't see much traffic where it is located.

The best ROI for the least amount of money and risk I have seen around here, is a buddy of mine who has a roll off dumpster business. If I needed the money and had to do something, I would buy about 2 dozen of those and the appropriate trailer. He picks them up with his pickup. I talked with him about it and he said the only complication would be if he got more dumpsters, he would have to hire somebody to run them.

What about the water and ice self serve businesses?

You really are an idiot.

The lake is "in the sticks". Right next to me. Some people store their boats in the water or near the water. And land in the city is at a premium for high rise buildings. I have owned a boat and it was at home, but I had two acres to put it on. Put yours in your driveway and your HOA is going to have something to say about it the next day. I never changed my story. Once again you fabricating something from thin air. Or, you just don't have any reading comprehension.

I know exactly what is costs to build per square foot. I've been constructing steel structures for almost 30 years.

Bois D' Arc Creek reservoir has already made Fannin County the hot county in Texas. Market value for my acreage is 7X what I paid in 2013.

News flash, dip chit. Gravel county roads tie into asphalt Farm To Markets and State Highways. My gravel road intersects with a State Highway that spans several counties and even more cities.

Go ride your bicycle in traffic, city boy.

Rump Ranger is more like it.

Running your mouth out your azz again. RIF...tool bag!

Not a dig. I’m always looking for private money lenders for my flips and BRRR’s, and now new construction homes.

Had a buddy who owned a roll off business.

Sold it about a year ago. Don’t know the particulars but I think he did well

One graveyard shift we devised a scheme to buy a laundry mat and only take prepaid cards. We would make the minimum card amount higher than the cheapest laundry service and also not divisible by any combo of services. The hope was that people would leave small amounts of cash on their accounts and never use the service. Bonus money.

I've thought about vending machines. Seems like little to no overhead, a little upkeep.
You could operate both snack(s), and drink(s). The issue is finding a place or business willing to place them.

Simple concept and it avoids most of the overhead a brick and mortar business is burdened with.

How much is hard money loans getting today?

I used them to buy my first few homes when I was flipping real estate.

Interesting conversation. Are private money loans guaranteed. And if so, how?

Lender holds the deed just like a bank would.
