Post: New Duplex in Alaska

I have been looking into investing into a four plex for some time now yet I keep hearing Alaska is going into a recession due to the oil prices dropping & that I should wait. What do you all think? Is it worth waiting till the end of 2016 instead of the beginning?

Being a landlord sounds worth it to me. being 23 there is nothing else that I want to do then build a tenant empire beneath me.

 "My point is there are a lot of people who get into RE investing using primarily OPM, but I believe not a lot of people last for a long time doing it."  

 If you were to offer a piece of advice to someone starting out and desire to long term OPM. What would it be?

Hi, I want to go through an in depth screening process on tenants to make sure that my new/first investment property is protected decently. What are excellent questions to ask? what are some to not ask because its illegal.

Hello Friend, 

This is something new for me to actually post on here. Yet, I have a good feeling that my desire will have a mutual interest to those who would rather work then have a family.

I am young and looking to make big things happen in affordable housing, big commercial, hotels, resorts, multi-family, and land. To make things clear I am not looking for handouts. I have known since I was old enough to think about a career that my career would be investing as my title. Particularly specializing in real estate investing. 

I hope to find individuals that have once had the same ambitions as I did, yet have either failed due to unfortunate circumstances or individuals that have succeeded with great victory. (particularly the ones that have had victory come with great sacrifice) 

At any rate, lets get some good discussions on this thread. Thanks for all of your time.
