Syndicators who bragged about how smart they were, showed off fancy lives, cars, private jets, and mansions, second homes, and wrote books and sold expensive courses about how smart they are at investing are being exposed all over the place.

Note that at that price point, you can buy mansions in "better" areas nearby (e.g.

A lot of people will pay $1200/nt for 4 crappy budget motel 6 quality rooms at the All-Star resort rather than $175/nt for an 8br themed out mansion with a private pool, theater, and $30,000 arcade room.To answer your original question on investing over a long-term period, that is really this market's main strength. 

@James Wachob  I was thinking about those nice SFR's you have that are new ... not mansions

I mean Joe Montana is a very successful Developer same with Steve Young.. and Ronnie Lott has done well in RE also.but I bought a big mansion that was 3/4 done from an NBA star and he was not business savvy at all.. and on top of that had about 7 or 8 baby moma's all with child support judgements against him ..

I got started in arbitrage in 2016 with a beach mansion in foreclosure. 

It was also during the deposition that the litigants learned the owner moved to Florida after the sale of the business and bought a mansion.

I think Strawberry Mansion has so much better scale for still room to grow neighborhoods there.

In that stretch of ocher and asphalt there are multimillion-dollar mansions and also some of the city’s most affordable rental apartments.

Go back to your mansion with your 7-car garage and focus on your biz.
