I got to where I am by asking those that are successful about a million stupid questions.

-To your success, the Rent To Retirement team!

I look forward to seeing your posts and wish you success in your investing journey

The Shadow Ln deal was an outstanding success.

So, it's still a viable way of investing, but does not have the same scale of success in today's economic environment in higher appreciation markets.

To scale successfully you have to get past the point where your newly increased expenditures exceed your increased revenue; past the point where your ROI allows you to “break even” on your investment, and past the point where the ROI is worth the increased risk, the increased aggravation, time, and “lifestyle” change, and past the point where you can step back from “operations” and concentrate on management.  

We do a ton of them here in Chicago and everyone of them is a great long term success!

Balancing both cash flow and appreciation is key to long-term success.

Keep in mind that tenant screening, regular property maintenance, and understanding the inspection requirements for Section 8 are crucial for success.

Your first couple deals will be important, they will set the stage for your success.
