My stepmother is very good at this as well, buying and selling primarily antiques and jewelry.

Hilarious and vintage.  

Specific geographic regions, number of units, vintage, roof type and age - things like that.

To verify, I tried multiple experiments, such as bidding on a phone watch for android on their jewelry section, you can pick them up from $49 to $89 on multiple websites (same model) I did a test bid for $40 over the high retail price, and sure enough, to try to me to go higher they counter bid.

This thread is vintage Andrey.

My wife was more into power tools than jewelry and still trying to lay bathroom tile at 7 months pregnant ... she's a keeper :-) Hopefully by the time you have kids, you'll be ready to graduate to the next step in your REI career anyhow.

In my opinion, the only way to manage risk is to not invest all/most of your money in any one year,  but instead, spread it out over multiple vintages/years.   

Current Portfolio:Building 1 Summary: Chicago Near West Suburbs; Vintage Building with 6 apartments and 6 retail storefronts. 2ndBuilding on property has 6 office suite and a 5000 sq. ft. warehouse/industrial space.Acquired: 2016; $1.6MM Additional Investment: Full renovation of 5 of 6 apartmentsStatus: Sold in 2020; $2.1MM & leased back all 6 apartments. 5 of 6 apartments converted to STR.

It's pretty risky but with proper planning you may be able to knock over a bank or jewelry store!

Are these vintage leases and the seller is selling because they know the tenants are fixing to hit them up for a rent reduction soon or the tenants will jump to another property??
