I have no experience investing in real estate, but I'm educating myself daily to begin my REI career in the near future. 

If it doesn't take, fire that client and you can move right along to a new one.If none of that helps, maybe you can do a daily affirmation like this kid:https://www.youtube.com/watch?

She still had 90% functionality because she can use the fridge, stove, sinks, toilets, showers, bedrooms, doors, windows, yard, etc.Daily value: $3310% of daily value $3.30Two days loss: $6.60Keep in mind, I'm being extremely generous.

Just some food for thought.

Expendable income attracts all the cool food joints, breweries, yoga studios, etc. that millennials love.Love prices + cool stuff = millennials crack.And before you know it the area has been "gentrified 2.0" and blows up like crazy.

We're the location for the upcoming World Equestrian Games, being held at the Tryon International Equestrian Center.You can find great artists in the River Arts District using many different mediums for their expression.We have mountain views, hikes, state/national parks, the French Broad River, Kayaking, Fly Fishing, Mountain Biking, good food, beer, and wine. 

Additionally, I have a decent amount of flexibility at this job and experience large periods of downtime on a daily/weekly basis. 

Just food for thought.

Since then he has mostly bought apartment complexes and has never lost any money and talks down about owning less than 32 units which usually allows you the chance of hiring an experienced Property Management Company to handle the daily operation that includes the screening and maintenance and you just manage the managers and get regular (once a week) financial statements and you still have positive cash flow.

Of course you have to qualify as an accredited investor for most, but if you do qualify it gives you the opportunity to get into bigger deals/more units that you otherwise would not be able to accomplish or afford on your own.You'll also be a limited partner in syndications, i.e. no active role in managing the property, so you'd have to be okay with that as well.Just food for thought!
