Charging the tenant $175 for renewal seems to run counter to our long term interests (stable/long-term tenants).

Trenton has some really bad neighborhoods and some stable ones. 

Living in Florida flood insurance is kind of a stable.

Maybe try RE when your location is stable.

When I think about Wholesaling it seems like a good opportunity on the front end (more possible supply with people moving out of state) but it hurts the back end if there isn't new demand coming into the state to purchase these homes (which makes it tougher for potential all cash buyers)oh ok, gotcha. there has to be a few areas in your vicinity that's in good demand. even a neighboring county, a neighboring state that has a good stable housing market for rentals if not flips.

So I was doing a move out walk-through with a tenant and saw a big box on a shelf in the laundry room.

The Midwest has much better returns and stable of a market.

Hello,

My name is Rupert I am a Register Nurse from upstate NY, Hudson Valley region. In my area alone Newburgh NY there’s sooo much potential and opportunity for real estate investing. I’m exhausted from my long 12 ...

appraisal  verify rental rates ... check crime and school maps etc. also keep in mind these assets trade at very stable price points.. so don't get sucked into you have to buy today or it wont be there .. that could be true and you may have to wait a week or two for a new one to pop up.. but don't get sucked into what I have seen others post about Morris invest.. they show a property you call back an hour later they say sorry someone bought it... causing the buyer to irrationally jump at the next one.. classic take away sales tactics employed by that vendor. ( from what others have written about on BP)

If you want to quit your job then you probably want that stable cash flow so maybe it would best to hold on to that property and rent it out....
