Hopefully it will spark a new passion. 

I am passionate about investing and eager to learn how I can begin my investment journey in Real Estate.

But as I said the concept in general is amazing and i'm a huge fan.

Personally I'm not a fan of getting pressured into a deal - if you don't feel good about rushing into the deal, it's better to back out.

We are big fans of East TN, and also like the Alabama markets.Congrats on the refi!

You may be educated and passionate about managing your own properties. 

I once heard a stock market investor say there we’re basically two ways to invest, either betting on broad market trends or basically hand to hand combant, finding stock’s that for whatever reason were basically mispriced or had arbitrage opportunity, I think the 2010’s were basically a rising tide lifted all boats kind of market, this is definitely gonna be more hand to hand combat, finding misprised deals, mispriced sub-markets (I’m a big fan of more rural areas that simply just by there very nature have less competition and more ability to create opportunities) and focusing on execution.  

. $240k is priced to trigger a bidding war, I just am not a fan of the neighborhood.

Hey @Keith Mintz, I am not a fan of arbitrage myself.

I would be hesitant if you don't have any passion for real estate investing but you might just need to find the right strategy that will get you a little more excited.
