It would HAVE to be setup as a Corporation. For many reasons, liability being the biggest.

Non profits are also corporations. I do not think we would be able to come up with an exempt purpose. BTW - You would never get anyone to invest into a nonprofit.

For liability reasons... YES but for transferability of ownership, etc. LLCs are not ideal.

700 shares at 1K each and your already out of business. Better go for 500 shares at 3K. Wages, operating expenses, improvements, etc have to come from somehere.

when the property value goes up we could remortgage the property with a no document interest only loan and put in a 700 bay shop with tools

Did anyone see the track that went up on RJ yesterday?? Asking $750K and not even close to the facility at Red River. Looks like most small avg tracks are going between $600K and $800K. Red River is not an average track. Somebody buy it!!!!

Does not look like a financially viable deal, at least for absentee ownership from our perspective. Just does not look to positive given the area economic situation. If however someone can put a deal together and have the resources to keep it going in the short term perhaps in the long term it could be made financially sound. Who knows though in the end, just not in the cards for us at this point.

The people who were running Red River were also running Cherokee County in Texas. I think what's happening is that when you go to red river site you are being redirected to Cherokee County.

What he said...The Cherokee site just absorbed the Red River webpage, nothing has changed, at least in the last 48 hours.
