My agent has recently shared a listing of a potential monthly income rental property in Puyallup areDetails:4 Plex (2 of 1 br/1ba and 2 of 2br/1ba)Located in South Hill neighborhood in PuyallupBuilt in 1976 (needs some renovation)Current Monthly income: $3k 5% CAP Rate(With renovation can potentially increase monthly rent up to $4.5K 8.9% CAP Rate according to Rentometer.com)Knowing that real estate market in Greater Seattle area is slowing down, should I pull the trigger on this opportunity?

Every time I do an analysis I feel like I'm wrong so I don't pull the trigger.

@Joe Splitrock The ability to do more deals also diversifies my investments, and more doors means when a vacancy occurs it isn't as harsh on the bottom line.

I've been reading and listening to the media from bigger pockets for the past 5 years, and at the end of 2017, I pulled the trigger to buy my first rental property. 

May pull the trigger on a duplex which has tennants who's lease ends in Sept and Oct.

Don't know should I pull the trigger at these prices

Also, you will learn the best after you pull the trigger and purchase your first property.

When a neighbor calls to complain about detached-home tenants swearing loudly, other than saying "tell me more" and letting the caller vent, any favorite phrases I could use to let them feel heard without triggering wounds or having the conversation dragging on forever? 

Paul I'm actually in Washingtonville :)Newburgh is definitely interesting, keeping on my radar, but not yet ready to pull the trigger. 

But also not sure why the critiques are so harsh.
