Congrats.....great to hear about how you turned your lump of coal into a diamond.....now what are you going do with the 1.5 mil?

Go to lowes sites for cabinets and use the diamond cabinets  (https://diamondnowplanner.com/) as reference.

It's a very very very competitive market around here, so you have to be willing to go after "diamond in the rough" properties to compete.

Never stated that @Derek Diamond this is trying to find realtors where I'm not licensed.

They are full of people that have "went Diamond" speaking of how they got there and how it has changed their lives. 

It has the potential to make money, but it also comes with spending hundreds of dollars on products that you convince yourself are better/equal to the cheaper products you can get at Walmart, and they justify it as "funding your own dream, not theirs".The mentorship is fully focused on growing your business with Amway, not really learning how to grow a business in general, which was my thought when I joined.There's a podcast called "The Dream" that dives deep into the start of companies like Amway and how they function, grow and profit while their "independent business owners" go into debt trying to reach the next level (Let's get diamond this month!

I also have personally lived in Anderson as well, and while there are areas to avoid for sure, some areas are diamonds in the rough such as the Edgewood area.

Just getting started on my SFH real estate investment in greater Seattle area and considering the following areas:Lake Stevens, Maple Valley, Black Diamond, BremertonI'd love to hear from any investors who have rental properties in these areas - is there a good rental market, and do your properties cashflow well? 

I am concerned that the valuations on existing properties are no longer there like they used to be, but all that means is that you have to search a little harder for a diamond in the rough than you would otherwise, and the current appreciation levels are a very nice plus.

That says it all about the "quality" of his tenants.Obviously, anecdotal evidence can show High End folks who are Low Lifes, and lower class people who are diamonds.
