If rents and prices did not keep pace with inflation before COVID, rents will not keep pace once COVID effects go away.

I'm learning real estate investing at good pace and can't wait to do my first deal.

However, if one is truly a buy and hold investor, it is highly likely that their ROE will slowly decline over time unless rents keep pace with values.

Thank you @Israel Tabi @Jeremy Pace

For me, it was perfect because I was able to learn at my (fast) pace and not be held back by the pace of the classroom, although I certainly got no value from the videos.That being said - my 15 hour experience was good.

I have gone through large banks, small banks, and regional banks but I keep finding they all move at their own pace.

Pick yourself back up and keep moving forward.The longer you don't act, the less experience you will have and everything and everyone else will be ahead of you.It's a fast paced world mate and you need to keep up with it.Just take action and go from there.Much success

He did mention about the market pace here in Washington state would be difficult to carry this out as CDOM is about 7-8 days, and most listing receive multiple offers and end up with a minimum of 10%-15% above the listed price.

He’s been in the game about five years, and this year is on pace to make close to 90k from real estate alone.

@Pace Jordan MorbyAdd to that the fact that most of your properties are supposed to come from dig leads and I can certainly see why you headed down this path.I've written many posts on how to find deals on my blog KarensPerspective.
