Will this momentum continue I guess is the real bet.

@Michael OharaAgree Westside has a consistent momentum however east side is slowly developing some great infrastructure Jobs corridor by Cleveland clinic., bars and some great apartment living by case, and most desperately needed is the development of opportunity corridor Where’s Johnh31 turning around whole streets 😁Someone could make huuuuge money one by buying cheap.... but you gotta have deep pockets and a great team!!!

I learned I must develop relationships with reputable contractors and create a power team of people I trust.

Then build the momentum from thereGoing to networking events and meetups can work, especially if those people are already looking to invest their money, but it's all about relationships and it's hard to build a great relationship with someone you just met at a meetup.

Please share your experience in detail and provide a solution (if applicable).Hmmm, I've made my fair share of mistakes. i'd say the biggest was not moving forward and continuing looking for deals when i had the momentum. what i'd do is go shopping, spend the money after each wholesale, then have to go do another deal after the pipeline dried up.That and not having a system i followed religiously.

I just wrapped up my first fix n flip property and received some praise from neighbors which made me think about using that momentum for other opportunities in the neighborhood.

I’m confident 2020 will be much better and hope to gain the momentum to purchase a second property in the area.

After several years of kicking the tires around here, reading books, walking properties, analyzing deals, and basically becoming the perfect walking example of "paralysis by analysis," I'm resolved to make 2019 the year I roll up my sleeves (or roll them up a little farther, I guess) and really get started in REI.To ensure I keep positive momentum toward my goals, I'm looking to hook up with a local accountability group - or start one, if necessary.

Accountability will give the whole real estate investing world some fire and momentum.

At the time I was trying to build up momentum.
