Tired of waiting!!! I think I'm just going to go for it
I think I'm just going to jump in the dragon's mouth, I live in the Los Angeles Area and I'm tired of waiting to see if the RE market dips or drops, should I just jump in and if I get burned I will learn from the experience? What would you do if you where in my shoes? newbie investor anxiously trying to get out of rent and owning property on an over-evaluated city of California
