@J ScottInteresting topic, thanksWill read your bookI think there are times where property investors should do nothing and just sit on their hands and watch For me its all about supply versus demand, volume.Key is to watch market conditions and market sentiment can never be under estimated

@Tom Harkins Although I understand your sentiment because my day job also involves procedures (nuclear industry) I can't bring myself to do the same thing with my rentals.

Those were my sentiments, exactly.

Despite the fact that the idea, “Someone has to pay tax on these rents” is the basic instinct of most observers regarding the rents that I have accumulated, as a matter of law that sentiment is only applicable if there is a law, regulation, or court case that establishes my tax liability.

While we can be long term buy and hold investors, if we don't get something at the right price - we're losing.The public sentiment here reminds me of Orlando in 2007. 

I had expressed this sentiment multiple times to the broker (all she does is mobile home parks), looking to her to give me some guidance or thoughts, which she avoided.When I initially listed the property for 650k around June/July 2016, the agent was telling me it was too high.

I have heard similar sentiments expressed by friends and family in the area.

I agree with the sentiment.

As someone who has been doing OOS as well as local investments, I echo Account Closed's sentiments pretty much to a T. 

We are debt free aside from our mortgage now and while we are far from financial independence we are both vehemently working toward it.So I really agree with the sentiment that patience and every single ounce of sweat you have should be what is getting you closer to financial independence right now.
