Absolutely, real estate can still be a smart investment—even in this market—and the Panhandle is one of the best areas to consider right now.

As i would.own this one out right.

What am I doing wrong, " Dave Ramsey"   OrWhat am I doing right , Grant Cardone?

It was a true chestnut log cabin, circa mid 1800s, right on the Roaring Fork River in Gatlinburg.

Focus on properties where you can force appreciation—those sitting on MLS too long might not be the right fit.

Right now, I'm drowning in much better opportunities and by the time I wrap those up, I'll be retiring on some riverfront property that I like. 

If you give contractors a prize for finishing early on time, they will finish then to get the prize, but there is plenty that can be left undone without you knowing that will harm you later.

1) Yiu REALLY need to know what CA will  allow you to do, I don’t know, but the state may say too bad landlord, you lose. 2) Assuming your attorney (Or you if you’re able to decode the laws that relate to your situation and are willing to go to court in front of a judge against a “sick” kid.) think you have the right to collect the rent I’d give them two options. 

That's why I tell a lot of my clients that it's a perfect time to invest right now when you can still find the 1% rule and positive cash flow especially in properties here that are still 120-180k in purchase price.

Tremendous response.
