Management/Sales vs. Ownership

[Calvin Ozanick]

I have been managing rental properties for over a year now. I have grown from 9 units to 125 and I love every minute of my job. I love helping clients acquire properties and continue to develop their real estate portfolios. I enjoy my job so much that I have now started the process of becoming a licensed real estate salesman in Wisconsin.  I have consistently done all of this with the plan to purchase my own rental properties and being a local landlord. I love all aspects of real estate and have no plans of stopping on the path I am on. However, do you (BP Community) feel that waiting for this peak in valuation of properties tapers off to the point where I can get in at a lower price. It only feels like this rise in prices will either drop, or continue to drop in certain areas until it makes more sense to get into the market. So, wait or go for it? What does everyone think? All feedback is appreciated.
