Read what the guys are doing that are booming!  

Sales of houses over $1 million reached record highs during the year, rising above figures at the peak of the housing boom, according to market analyst HousingPredictor

Since then I've noticed a new construction boom in the neighborhood.

CA is a boom-bust state and where one buys in the cycle is critical.

@Maggie Atilus I am in Capitol Heights and truly believe it is on the verge of a nice boom being on the outskirts of DC please let me know if you have anything.

I'm not talking boom or bust appreciation but rather 3-4% on average.

It feels like that south King county area is booming with new members, you are in good company!

I already have two properties like this under my belt (a duplex in a booming area and a 4 family in an up and coming area).Who is out there doing deals on 1 property that cash flows $850/month, and what kind of deals are they?  

Saturation is a huge issue there, in my opinion, since the boom a few years ago and that affects vacancy rates and exit strategy (there have been posts about just those on here).However, with all of that said, Memphis is better to invest in than the majority of US cities.

Many years ago during the real estate boom I went out on a limb and purchased a home in rural SC.
