Looking at possibly picking up "Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor" and " Wealth Without Cash".

I’m really interested in learning more about your experience.I’m curious about the potential downsides and challenges you’ve encountered with this system, especially when it comes to picking neighborhoods.

I live in Gilbert and own 5 rentals here, but I also help other investors find, analyze, buy and manage properties all over the valley, and Casa Grande is a top pick from some of my other investors.

Try to pick things where replacement pieces are possible and easy. i ill add that I put in some games we really like as a family, they went missing over a couple of months.

I have a potential wholesale deal out in Colorado Springs and it'll be my first one, so I'm looking to pick someone's brain who has done a wholesale deal in Colorado before, what title company you've used and trust, and any potential buyers! 

I picked up the same things too.

Not a good analogy because the tenant isn't a random person who broke into your house.

to go back to my first point, though, i generally can't pick - it can take months and months to find a deal. 

This just have to pick a market with a draw and being renovated.  

I thought it would be fun to start a thread where we can share our craziest fix-and-flip stories, biggest "oops" moments, and the golden nuggets of wisdom we've picked up along the way.
