What made you finally pull the trigger into investing?

I'm still a few months from pulling the trigger on an actual deal, so I would love to hear constructive criticism now!

@Shane Brown I think the hardest part is going to be to know when to pull the trigger.

Turned out I just needed to pull the trigger and get out there. 

I personally feel like there is a lot of demand for real estate, and that interest rates may simply curb demand enough to keep things flat instead of triggering some kind of fire sale (although that could be cool!). 

I personally only have success from repeat customers who I know are ready to pull the trigger when I have a good deal.

I remember reading a BP post about how to have a property transfer count as a sale without triggering all the normal excise taxes and such.  

I’m hoping to find something to pull the trigger on in the next few months!

Keep in mind that we were in a market that was not normal and not sustainable we are just retreating back to a normal market were market time is normally 90 days for DOM .. that's been more normal.. its not normal to list a property and have 17 offers first day.. and along with that its the time of year it always slows down right about now.. the turn key folks I know though are still plowing through their inventory.. as investors are buying for cash flow and as long as the numbers work they pull the trigger.

I have an itchy trigger finger, part of the reason why I like real estate is because it forces me to do better homework and stick with it for the long term.I guess my worry is, am I dumb for not "sheltering" money in a Solo 401k at all?
