Convincing my wife on investing in low income area
My wife and I run our real estate business together. We own a couple of properties. We make good money as is. We are looking for our next property. She is very reserved and low risk. Therefore she is anti section 8 and anti low income areas. I, however, am a calculated risk taker and am willing to invest in low income neighborhoods because of the great returns that can be made. I'm talking 100% annual returns on our investment and down payment. She isnt having it at all, does not want anything to do with it. I want to be on the same page with her. How do I get her to not just focus on the area and possible problems and instead look at the potential profit margins?
