“There is little progress in the comfort zone, and little comfort in the progress zone.”

This one speaks to me. Life can definitely be good living in comfort, but it is much better when I push myself to be something greater albeit uncomfortable.

@Justin Tahilramani I am not focusing on C. I was just curious to see if anyone was brave enough to do it and what their result was. The bulk of the question was to see if it’s feasible to buy sight unseen. Thanks for the comments and question!

I’m wanting to get into the buy and hold strategy, and am looking out of state where it is more affordable. Curious as to whether or not I should consider buying sight unseen, and if so what recommendations do you have to ensure I’m not getting burned. Obviously, having a team in place would help, but flying out to see properties that may or may not work is an expense and cuts profits. Could it be worth the risk reward to buy unseen? Also would be curious if anyone out there has bought class C sight unseen? If so, how did you do it and what has the result been? Thanks all!

@Kevin Christensen Sounds like you are already taking time in the education. With a good agent and team investing will not take that much more of your time, start networking and find ways to invest using others peoples money (i think there are some good BP books on this😉). With the right balance you can have yours without it impacting her’s. Do a couple of deals and her eyes will be opened a bit more. Not to mention give you the means and time to create more memories. Best of luck.
