It’s great that you are dual majoring in finance and accounting, I feel as though they are great fields to go into.I wish you the best of luck!

Jim,, we are seeing that here in PDX as well... and I am good with a market that does not have multiple offers.. it makes it very hard for people and agents to make a living if you only have a 1 in 10 shot of buying the house you want..so some stability and slowing down in my mind is a good thing.but what I see on BP is people read the hyperbole articles that misquote things.. and the next thing you know they are worried its 2008 all over again.. which ( and I could be wrong of course) but none of my bankers or those in know in finance world think is a risk.. only risk would be metros losing major employment.. then it affects everyone landlords businesss and prices..

I have several houses that have infinity cash on cash returns, meaning that on my original cash, I paid cash to buy the house, fixed it up, did a cash-out refinance on the property and got all of my money back, and make cash flow.

I also have a solid background in finance. 

Do any of you have any other areas you are interested in, or actively buying in?

I just tell people I am in finance. 

The side my mom lives in is in fine liveable condition.

I have a background in finance and my full time job is in insurance, but have always been interested in using real estate as a wealth building and passive income tool. 

I am in finance(day job)and I dont see this as much of an issue.
