Nothing wrong with that but you can see how that household income can certainly provide a cushion if their wholesaling business is only making $30k/year yet technically they are "full timers".

Honestly,I'm still not sure what I want to be when I grow up Christian.I'm thinking of getting out of my current job anyway,and that is the reason for thinking about getting the RE license.It's simply time for me to do something different.I'm becoming miserable and while i'm not opposed to changes I am opposed to being miserable :)The wife and I have discussed it and we aren't opposed to selling our current home.With the cash from the sale it would be possible to buy at least 3 decent rentals.We could rent out 2 and live in one for awhile while we look for more.I've lived the high life with over 150k household income a year and the lowest in which I slept behind a chicken factory for a couple nights on the ground.Even if we only end up with a couple houses it would add to the income stream.I don't have a clue if this is what I want to do with my life or not.I've weighed the pros and cons and even if I fail miserably it won't be an issue other than pride.And i'm too smart to fail,I'm just hoping this time I won't get bored.

Times two incomes per household.

The median household income is one of the highest in northeast Ohio at $82,000.

If I am not building ADU my down payment will be more like $80k for a starter, but that amount will hardly be enough to get me a multiple units let alone a single condominium in SoCal. 

@Max Householder @Nathan Dehn @Patrick Queensen @Michael King I moved to St.

This happened by accident so I’m trying to make it more intentional by building a relationship with these companies like Toyota, Exxon, USAA etc (generally household name type companies) 

I am new to investing in real estate and I am considering investing in a condominium in Vancouver, mainly for renting to international students, any recommendations?

Although the market may not pop like in 2008, the fact that the average household cannot afford the average house price is alarming - its not even close!

I would say the crisis is pretty much caused by the beautiful "american dreams" that every household in the U.S. should have their own houses, even for those who actually really can not afford in the long run -- that is the initial purpose of the government supported institutions, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- to lend money to those who can not afford in the long run.
