Sad reality is I'll probably own a few rentals before ever moving out.

I am pissed at the company and in search for a decent management company at this point. 

Let’s just agree to disagree and move on!

Investing in Wisconsin and Illinois is a great move—both states offer solid opportunities for multifamily and single-family rentals.If you’re looking to connect with like-minded investors or agents, I’d recommend joining local real estate meetups or REIA groups in the areas you’re targeting.

.: Quote from @Audrey Sommer: A couple weeks ago, I was talking to a texan resident that came up to Washington State to help the company I work at, train our team for a new product launch.

Colder climates see fewer moves in the winter, and things really slow down around Thanksgiving and Christmas when people are busy with the holidays and family.Second, talk to your PM.

What are your investment plans moving forward?

Have recently started a renovation company with a friend, both of us successful business owners and talented in the trades.

I had one w him a couple of weeks ago. very slow so far but he confirms they will move forward asap. greetings!
