My question is, Would you all drum me out of BP if I were to "invest" in a new home?

As a backline tech I set up guitars, amps, keyboards, and drum kits for bands and babysit for the event.

I'm a pro studio and touring musician (drum set) living in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY.

I was an engineer and my other brother is a butterbar engineer in 10th mountain @ Fort Drum.

I'm questioning whether this is actually good advice (working with a buyers agent) or if those agents really are trying to drum up business and have their best interests in mind.

Nice long as Ft Drum isnt BRAC’d keep on crushin it up there

If they are creating fake ads on CL to drum up buyers they are either shady or incompetent.

@Mary Rutten@Scott Schultz   Mary I don't think Scott was talking about your guest speakersits well known that the bigger players in a market will troll the REIA's looking for newbies and dump houses on them that they may or not make money on.Eddie speed is there to sell his guru note courses... its how they drum up business.. these guys are all on a circuit and REIA's are part of the circuit.that said I have fond memories my Grandfather had a cottage on Lake Poygan out of Winneconnie  not sure if I am spelling those correctly.. but I spend many summers there in the late 60's and have very fond memories.I also remember though going back in the mid 80s with a car I rented in IL  and getting chased off of the driveway into the cabin by locals who I guess don't really like IL residents..

I try to be strategic about my purchases there, first drilling down for cashflow and then taking a step back to see if I can put myself "in the path of potential future appreciation" as I like to say.It's worked phenomenally well for me and I'll continue investing in Detroit until the masses are beating the drum on the city.

So many people are beating the positive cash flow drum that a lot of readers are forgetting there are other factors in each of the deals.
