Obviously just because someone doesn’t reply doesn’t mean they’re hiding something or wrong.. BTW, Did Zeal ever respond to your email about metals? I sent Zeal an email questioning a few of their positions and they never responded… I sent them another email asking for their performance this year – they responded within a day and sent me several years worth.
Personally if I was a developer and wasn’t struggling to find customers, I wouldn’t find the time to respond to your email.. I think your email has some good questions in it like most of your posts, but if I were a person with multi-millions of dollars and 20 years of real estate experience I might not care to respond.. raw land is supposedly a totally different type of investing.. Myself, I am super excited to see what happens to desert land in the next 10 years.. I think people will move to affordability and that Southern California desert climate isn’t that bad if you build your house right.
I’ve noticed in alot of your posts you talk about price, demand and supply as if they are seperate.. You know theyre not, but I’m just pointing out one exasmple.. you said something like ‘i dont see any money to be made investing in yuma real estate over the next 5 years’ – are you completely disregarding price? What about that corner lot just off the exit thats going in(hypothetical) don’t you tihnk that lot will be valuable to a gas station regardless of the real estate market? What if it’s $100,000 dollars and the appraisal says $250k.. maybe a weak example, but putting things in black and white might be cutting too many corners..
