My answer to this topic is always "it depends" Some investors are looking for a predictable, passive income.

In a city predicted to grow.Marketing Plan:MLS, bigger pockets, call as many turnkey providers/investment real estate agents as possible. 

I have read on the internet and from few other people that it is not the right time to purchase a property as there is a prediction going around about market crash.

Hey guys, i just want to know your predictions on the next market crash.

What happens if/when the predicted returns are different when they happen? 

@Howard C I doubt the short sale price will be anything close to what you predicted.

When I was in Law School I don't think I could have predicted tax liens would be my sole area of practice, but its good when your hobby is also your occupation I think.

In MD either an attorney OR one of the parties named in the instrument must certify that they prepared it. 

:) bought and rehabbed the home in cash (spent twice what I predicted on the rehab lol) and then rented and refinanced.
