@David Faulkner some may act that way I know many truly wealthy and they were it well.. multiple homes multiple ferraris .. jets ... all sorts of trappings of wealth.. can't paint a brush and say all mega rich run around like paupers.and not all rich are are drowing in debt.. one of my business partners who sold his garbage company to waste management for 65 million... owns every thing in cash... homes in Napa valley Tahoe big hunting ranches travels the world.. he does wear levi's and drive a Chevy tahoe.. but one look at wifes jewelry and you get the drift.Another of my business partner owns a few hundred unit apartment in PDX all paid for... 2 million dollar home in Honolulu .. member of Wailii condo at Nauru tower that is vacant most the time I get to use it when I visit.. drives a Tesla I talked him into buying.. so just can't paint the picture of everyone who has a bunch of toys is drowning in debt that simply is not true.

Quote from @Carlos Ptriawan: so @Jason Thompson , rather than speculating , let me know your zip code and house configuration that you are looking for and lets debug and analyze together, every market is hyper local and can not be generalized, I've shown how in my zip code the price is actually flat and never drop unlike what they said in newspaper haha LOL the problem with housing is actual sold price is not like stock price where everyone is seeing the same chart, this is actually I think the benefit of real estate investing whre sometimes people oversell or overbid their houses due to inaccuracies or lousy realtor.I made >100k in 2021 alone for 4 months studying the price discrepancy lol @Carlos Ptriawan that would be a great help Carlos, my criteria is as follows; Asset ClassGarden StylePrice: $10M-$50MUnits: 50+Vintage: 1980-2000Class: C to B+Business Plan: Value Add assets with deferred maintenance that are underperforming the market on rent, occupancy, and or expense ratioMarketEverything North of HoustonKingwoodKatyConroeThe WoodlandsSugar LandAny modifications and recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Lot's of "date nights" at HD and Lowes and D4Ds.She told me a story of how she went into a pawn shop to kill some time and look for deals, and the owner kept trying to direct her to the jewelry case, and she instead asked where he kept the power tools for sale ... after that story I new she was a keeper.

For countertops, we use a high-gloss laminate that looks like stone/granite (this is one place where we probably do a small disservice to our buyers, as the high-gloss doesn't last nearly as well as the matte finish, but looks much nicer when new, which is why we use it).For appliances, we use a faux stainless -- low-end that we get from Home Depot.

All of these areas offer an abundance of "2%" properties in the working class areas (generally older housing stock of 1960s and earlier vintage, so make sure you carefully inspect), but also of course have nicer pockets of 100k properties that will rent for $1,200.Just curious why the specific interest in Cinti, do you have other connections?
