In that seminar, many success stories were provided. One of them is a big land in Temecula bought in 70s for $400k and lastly offered about $20 million. This land is hold by the speaker.
By the way, Palmdale will be a transportation center as there is an airport nearby, several high speed railroad in construction will go through there. There is a special tax zone called FoxField industrial zone in Lancaster. Google backed eSolar put their solar farm there. and BYD (Buffet invested Chinese green car company) also set manufacture facilities there.

[quote=jpinpb]My take on the land. Depends how long you plan to keep it. How old are you? Can you just sit on it for the next 20-30 years? Plan on leaving it to kids?
I can think back to 30 years ago when there was a big nothing in Temecula. I even remember a lawsuit involving some land in Temecula. Big dispute. I kept thinking who the hell would live in the middle of nowhere between Riverside and San Diego.
I remember when we first moved to California my dad was telling me about some guy who bought quite a bit of land way back in the day in the middle of nowhere. He ended up making quite a bit of money. He was talking about Palm Springs.
Also, the expression, “They stopped making land.” Really applies to land, not houses.
I don’t think I’m being bullish, but I wouldn’t be shocked if in 30 years they end up building up there in Palmdale/Lancaster.
But I also agree, whoever is selling it, already subdivided and they’re making money off the subdivision of the parcels. Nevertheless, developers like to build and when they overbuild, they continue to push out to the exburbs and deserts.[/quote]

September 29, 2010 at 6:51 PM #610780UCGalParticipantYou say it will be a transportion center.
That just means people will go *through* there on their way, elsewhere.Much as I support high speed rail (not necessarily a popular view here on Piggington) I seriously doubt that either line will ever be fully funded. Personally, I wouldn’t make a business decision based on high speed rail having 2 lines stop in Palmdale.
I lived in Bellingham, WA which had an international regional airport, Amtrak, the Alaska Ferry, various local ferries, not to mention some awesome mountain bike trails. It was NOT a regional transportation center. I think you’re reading to much into the po-dunk airport and the possible future high speed rail.
I don’t want to rain on the parade… It’s just my personal opinion that this is a potential ripoff… I don’t see Palmdale become more than the next victorville.

September 29, 2010 at 8:58 PM #610839RicechexParticipantThe whole idea of seminars and such is nothing but a red flag to me. A con game if you will.
I was looking into land at one time too. The following is a link to an excellent book. However, after reading it, I was so overwhelmed by all the tasks involved, and all the things that could go wrong, etc….that I gave up the land buying idea.
