But most of the posters here that I have noticed are giving specific examples for others to follow without expecting them to pay anything for any video.I do believe that you could give specific advice without giving away your system and thereby also wetting the appetite of a lot of us to check things out further.I hope this did not come across as any type of attack at all, but just the way things seemed to come across to me as mostly an outsider.

In regards to your first question, I would keep looking in San Antonio if it were me, but each investor has their own parameters, risk tolerance, and appetite. 

I understand their appetite has been equally as voracious in Chicago and Phoenix.  

If more people want to own, rents are rather suppressed and property values relatively higher.In an area where values are high and rental income low, the rental income sometimes barely covers your interest and tax payments.
