Buy, only you can decide if you're on fast growth or slow growth mode, and if the risk/reward of extra leverage is right for you. 

I am highly considering the Dallas area, yet through hours of research through listening to the podcast, I have become aware of the precautions that should be taken with this mode of RE investing.

hi there, I am currently a tenant and am concerned about my units safety.

I always like to plug those in just to have a safety net.

I don't know, I stopped wholesaling as a main aspect of my business model, I wholesale properties that I pick up but don't want to do anymore because I get better deals, so I am on the same boat asHow is the market down there in Jersey?

What do you think a judge is going to say when they find out you took away the tenant's mode of transportation to their job which pays their rent?

Alternatively, you could put the water heater into vacation mode and just shut off the furnace.

Planning on taking the next few months to soak up as much knowledge as I can before diving in.Looking for recommendations on markets that can cash-flow and aren't too sketchy so I can start learning how to run numbers and examine an area (just in view mode right now, but might as well be in an area that I can dive into when ready).Currently live in the SF bay area, so there's really not much local that works.  

Until you have restored utilities I would not let tenants back into LIVE in the apartments,, no plumbing,, that's gonna be a big Poop problem, and NO electric,, is gonna be a safety hazard and issue,, no smoke detectors..
