Hi all,I’m back from the sidelines and boy is my competition in trouble.

It sounds like you need to stay on the sidelines on this one.  

As I sit on the side lines waiting a good deal, your post reminds me that this is the smart thing to do.best,Genise

Hello everyone I an so lucky to have found this site I finally made the choice yo jump in after years of being on the sidelines for wait seems like forever  I wanted to really introduce myself I live in santa cruz ca iam deciding this week if I finally get my reality license I went to school in NY back in 07 but I failed the test ..

I've been sitting on the sidelines but I'm very interested in purchasing my first property. 

Using a little basic math and intuition, I know that after this deal I'll be stuck on the side lines for a while until my RE and personal income can refill the capital coffers for the next acquisition....unless.......unless there was another way!

They rented fast and were a nice sideline to my day job.

And bunting toward first with no one on base gets you removed from the game.I think it is wise to look for extremely good deals when your resources is your biggest limitation.But that said don't stay out of the market for long or the so so deal may look like a bargain 1 year from now while you're still on the sidelines.

But, as you guys have made it clear, on the sidelines of that one is where I belong.  

I'm finally getting off the sidelines and pursuing my long held goal to become a successful commercial real estate investor.
