I hardly rely on HUD properties to make a living as HUD opportunities in Metro Atlanta are extremely scarce, and I'm not trying to be BP's "King of HUD". 

Do not rely on it for legal advice.

the REI will be able to place risk controls by knowing how to analyze markets (not properties), understand how money works so they can develop and use multiple strategies instead of relying on just one, and understanding what a plan is, and how to design one for them,...and stick to it. 

Lots of headwinds facing real estate, like the following: Inflation Consumer Debt Lack of consumer liquidity-- renters don’t have first and last month’s rent, let alone a down payment to buyOwners interest-rate lockedOversupply of class A multifamilyStagnation of rent growth on assets aggressively underwritten at acquisition Maturation of term debt combined with stagnant rent growth against a backdrop of rising debt rates =investors unable to meet basic debt coverage service ratios on refinance Market normalization forcing operators and investors to rely on market fundamentals (recently) forsaken, while prioritizing expediency of deploying capitalInstitutional and local investors are both frozen by volatility and cost of capital and debtAll that being said, we feel good about B and C class assets we focus on and the markets we are in. let's connect soon 

At an interest rate.To top it off not only do you get the privilege of borrowing your own money If you do pay out your pocket to use your own moneyIt now reduces your death benefit by the amount of your own savings you borrowed.None of it is a good situation for the consumer.It is called Consumer Confusion on purpose.Because if you can't understand it then you are left to rely on an agent who usually stirs you for what's best for there pocket.

The newer more renovated houses will continue to rise but I feel at some point mine will appear as an old dated house that somebody looks at and will want as a cheaper place to fix up and renovate.Other than this, I don't really enjoy the out-of-state investor aspect of relying on a property manager when this was always a hands on investment for me until I moved away.

We learned to rely on our network to find the right people for the type of work we needed.

Initially, I relied on county GIS to identify potential properties and acquired contracts via cold calls, which led to my first six deals.

More importantly, you can't rely on ROI when going out that long.
