Post: Alaska Recession: How Bad?

It shouldn't drop more than 10%. I think most of the house in Alaska are outdated but asking price is still high, maybe that's why the market looks like its dropping. I looked at 52 MFR and I can honestly say 80% were overpriced because they were out-dated. A lot of landlords in Alaska are out of state. As long you keep your 4-plex or SFR nice and clean, they should still sell good

I'm trying to find a inexpensive way to start the direct mail campaign. I was going to mail out my "driving for dollar" list today and realize i was going to spend a lot of money on just stamps alone. Anyways does anyone have success using USPS bulk mailing? It looks like a cheaper route to get my campaign start. I can pick a route for $80. Couple of negative i can think of is that it won't have the name or address and absentee owner won't get it. But for $80 isn't bad to start out

What book are you reading or listening to on audible? Just want to keep educating myself, already finish couple just need recommendation 

@Kyle J. thanks for you're input. I totally agree with you, you have to know the area and invest in it to know why its on the list which is why I wanted to hear from someone like you, who is investing in stockton.  I haven't look in stockton market because I'm so far and all my friends that live there aren't interested in real estate like me.  

@Terry Lao yeah emotion and logic don't mix, don't do it. lol 

@Terry Lao so would you invest in stockton ? I wonder who is actively investing in stockton and the surrounding areas, i would love to hear what they say.  Even if i lose my job, i don't know if i would run back to stockton, there so much places in between i would live and fee better about especially coming from the bay area. Yeah stockton is stockton, i still go back there just because i have so many memories there and of course friends, if they leave i probably won't even go visit. 

I'm still confused how Stockton is rank #4?  I grew up in stockton and still go back there because all my best friends and some family live there.  They all would commute to livermore, tracy, and even sacramento for jobs.  I won't mind investing in stockton if given a good reason/price but i won't bank on appreciation though. I guess i will do some more research on this and ask around
