There are still flood properties around the city that can be purchased cheap and have enough margin to make money.

If you're buying in cheap/rough areas then you're likely going to be getting market rate tenants who, for whatever reason (but usually something in their criminal or rental background) can't rent in better areas and can't qualify for vouchers.Nothing wrong with being a low-income housing provider as an RE strategy, just don't assume that subsidized tenants will be flocking to your units.Good luck!

I bought these properties cheap, had them fixed up and not have they appreciated a lot that also generate a nice tax free cash flow that goes back into my IRA to be redeployed into more properties.This is a huge tax free money maker. 

It’s cheap, easy and way more than you need.

You may have to give up the cheap pricing, however, it could be worth it if your holding costs are higher. 

I get the concept of analysis paralysis - but maybe it is 'analysis-not-making-sense-icus"... to invent a new term.I think beginners need to realize that the real estate market is cyclic.  3-5 years ago both properties and money were cheap.  

. $25 barely feeds a family of four a cheap meal.
