@Jody SimsI am amazed ... literally blown away at the number of people who spend tens of thousands of dollars - even hundreds of thousands of dollars over a period of years to have someone show them the secret path to real estate success (which doesn't exist) - it seems that there are a large percentage of potential investors who are terrified of taking the first step to begin investing without having someone hold their hand - and there are plenty of groups who will happily hold those hands if you write a large check!!!  

And then alternately I get terrified when the numbers look good that I must be doing something wrong. :).

I'm terrified of the prices, but other folks are still buying.

We spent about 6 months living in and fixing up the side we lived in, and then were terrified when the tenants next door told us they were moving out (this was our first rental, AND I don't know that the term "house-hacking" even existed - Ha!). 

I was terrified with my first purchase, but it is all part of the learning process.  

I was terrified.

That is me and DMM.Want to know something terrifying?

I have only felt uneasy once, after my husband served an eviction notice that had to include my home address, at a rental where the occupant (not our tenant, but leftover girlfriend) was mentally unstable and abusing prescription drugs.She also had moved in a new boyfriend that had just been release from prison.Although I am not terrified to go show our property or to deal with our tenants, I am cautious and think about my personal safety and that of my family.

I'd never find a house in my market.To my wife, this property is terrifying.
