Some areas its not bad other areas its horrid and you do one and leave like for me I will never build in the city of Portland OR again.

that doesn't make them bad investments - i'm still buying. 

I am getting nervous over potential issues with the house or the loan options, and the prospect of either being pushed into a bad deal or losing $50k in a nano second.

Furnished Finder means you will need to have more interaction points to process them and collect payment--- does not mean it's a bad option, but there is less automation involved.

And, especially if your goal is to build a portfolio to live off of, bad deals (and even marginal deals), will keep you from achieving that goal much more than slowing down and waiting for better deals to surface.But beyond that, I also find I get most burnt out when I am invested in deals emotionally and with time.

Fast-forward to the divorce (messy, bad, abuse, etc.)
