Market Constraints - Anyone else dealing with this?

[Prem Rao]

Hi, 

I have been diving deep into the suburbs of North Texas, and its been super difficult to get the 1% rule and or generally break even properties. But from my market research, I think there are so many great signals of future growth, that its visionary work to invest here. I was wondering for those that have more experience with the long term and hold strategy, if I don't get certain signs of break even today, does that mean it's time to pivot and/or why? My concern is that by continuously flipping from market to market, I'll become an expert of none, but more experienced people - let me know what you think in the comments
