@Zachary Pilz What a cool opportunity!

I agree with you on the positive energy - this is a really cool community.

That being said, with the market cooling off currently in BC as well as most of Canada and still a high demand for rentals, shouldn't an investor be able to find great deals that meet the rules of thumb?

I found Arizona Mission Heating & Cooling – (520)822-8499, hopefully this looks right. 

Is it finished space with heating/cooling and normal ceiling height? 

One is that the housing market in this area is so hot, it seems like getting into it now is an excellent way to spend a lot of money on learning and doing rehab's, only to have the market cool off before I can really capitalize on what I've learned.

The house looks beautiful, very cool.

Having said that, I am starting to see the market cool a little bit.

people will feel cool and love telling the "water cooler" story when they get back home.

why sit on the side line and wait for a crash that may never happen .. and probably if it does wont be near the magnatude of the last one.There are multiple different types of investments in and around real estate other than being a landlord.. so maybe we confuse the developer who just did a subdivision and flipped the plat to LEnnar and made 2 million in it in 16 months with 150k into it.. .. those are pretty cool homeruns.. and done all the time.. but you need the skill set to set into the guy or gal that can source a property that a company like DR or Lennar will buy you need the strength to talk the farmer into letting you have an option on the property you have to have the Risk tolarnce to put up 150k and maybe lose it... becasue you can t flip that plat.. you have to have contacts at the big builders to get to their land ACK guys or gals.. but you put that all together and thats what a homerun looks like. guys that buy at courthouse steps  hit tons of base hits..
