Insurance companies have high statistics??

To the hun, I just saw statistics that your the #1 foreclosure market!!!

"If I were billing them out at $35 an hour I could make money, pay taxes, workers comp etc"............thats a bold statement and obviously you've never tried it.

The charts below show the Raleigh area MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area) general home price index over different time frames.

These are things you will pick up by driving the neighborhoods you select.Cash Flow: Cash flow is:Gross Rent - learn to estimate this by looking at local rental listings, talking with local investors, and networking with real estate agentsLess PITI (Principal, Interest, Taxes, and Insurance) - you can often get most of this from your lender and insurance broker.Less Vacancy - Ask local landlords and look up statistics on HUD. 

Have some buyers retracted, you bet some have, but to say all buyers or even most buyers have retreated or won't purchase in general is to also state there original intent to purchase housing was purely selective and not need-driven, which again math says is statistically impossible.

Fortune favors the bold.

Many don’t track this statistic.

For reasons that I cannot disclose in this forum I would like to know the top few things that you struggle with in regards to property management companies.  Give me a few of your top pain points!

you mentioned on bold link above...My recommendation to you is DO NOT INVEST with FAMILY!!
