@Hsin-I Hsu  It depends on your long term goals, risk tolerance and earning potential.A couple of bay area sayings:   Any time you can afford to buy real estate you should.  

As far as office I remain intrigued by it, also at least in our area condos have been brutally hit and I think offer a “deal” without quite the downsides to office, I tend to think office/retail in suburban and even pandemic boom markets (I’ve started investing on the eastern shore of Md and have considered some office deals there) offers the best risk/reward of office because you have a population boom coupled with ultimately still a low supply of office space, where as urban areas have lost population and have a huge glut of supply, I think the ultimate fate of a lot of urban office trends towards zero/land value. 

I'm Maria J from New Jersey, passionate about real estate investing for a couple months now.

I'm in the same boat, I've been happily using Stessa for a couple years and recently I'm having connection problems and they're not connecting with mortgage companies that are buying out my loans.

A couple of follow-ups so I can better understand.

Attend one of these trainings to understand the bid process, there is some nuance as to how the final minute of bidding can be managed, which can be good info to know should bidding be competitive.My attorney has recommended that a writ of possession be filed for any property purchased at auction.  

I've had a couple of bad actors, but all in all I've had good experiences and continue to provide this type of housing.   

I know there are successful investors there.I have a couple of great realtor/investors that work that market hard if you need great boots on the ground. 

I am planning to build a business to replace my income in couple of years so as to have monthly cash flow equal to my W2 income.
