Personally I think it's gonna be a doozy, and I've heard economists and analysts say this time things are different - followed by those same people saying the most terrifying thing you could hear a financial analyst say is "this time things are different".

It can be terrifying and life threatening.

I was terrified....i wish i had bought more..light fixes, and holds, turn over to prop mngmnt, with right funding in place beforehand is pretty easy..even less emotional than being to much into it involved present...i just suggest don't buy substantial fix, rehab and flip from out of state...and not knowing area or connections...but hold is pretty easy, not so hard, with right agent boots on ground...

Deep down I want them out, but I think it also terrifies me to have the place vacant.

Now that I have terrified you. 

It was terrifying for a while there, but it turned out to be a solid investment.

I was a teacher and was just terrified of not having the money for my loan.

I remember I was terrified renting out my home initially; then excited!

Unlike 99% of all Loan Originators who are 100% dependent on realtor referrals, I'm able to share info on topics that all LOs will agree when talking among other LOs, but are terrified to agree in front of realtors.   

Hey there,I've been searching properties in the upstate of South Carolina for several weeks now (and I feel somewhat dumb for even posting this to begin with because I actually own a few rentals and I'm slightly terrified come tax time next year), and apparently I've been running my tax numbers all wrong and not accounting for the 6% non-owner occupant rate.Am I completely missing something or does this seem to kill virtually every deal out there??
