buy and hold investing

[Joseph Egan]

Hi everyone! 

this might be a silly question but how does buy and hold real estate investing help an individual compete with other investors. I understand there is cash flow and tax advantages and the holy grail of passive income. But, how does my singular property of buy and hold help me compete against another investor maybe using another strategy or using the same strategy. why is buy and hold good? why is it bad? how can i maximize growth and profit? any insight is welcomed! thanks in advance everyone!

It sounds like you are trying to win a trophy. Why do you care so much about "competing against other investors"?  This is not a win / lose competition.

Not everyone has the same goals.  Not everyone wants to do exactly what you want to do.  Everybody can win.
