beginning with apartments?

Hello;
For those apartment experts out there, I was wondering their thoughts on 2010 and onward to get started in apartment investing. I own a SFH and have done a few small deals but still have a lot to learn with residential investing. I am aware of a lot of good education out there for apartments (Dave Lindahl and others) but am a little leary to jump right in to multi familiy/apartments as a beginner. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Eric

Hello Eric,

Like anything worth doing, you have to move beyond your fears and do it anyway. Reread David Lindalh and you'll be reminded that we all go through those periods of fear and doubt, but if you perservere, you'll accomplish more than you anticipated. I jumped into apartment buildings early and have never looked back. Do your homework, and learn how to analyze the numbers and the area. The extra effort will certainly be rewarded.
