I'd give it 4.5 out of 5 stars as a game/hobby. 

They promise the moon and the stars because thats how they get business.  

I think most people really want to book a place that has 5 stars. 

Hello,If your not familiar with Todd Chrisley, reality tv star of "Chrisley Knows Best," I suggest researching how he made all his money- which was in real estate investing.

So I am about to dive into Real Estate Investing. And when I say dive in...I literally mean no safety net or wings.I will just shoot for the stars.That being said. I will doorknock and direct-mail homeowners.Can someb...

Welcome Angelica,I am sure you will be a star in real estate as well :)

We are looking for a Rock Star agent to help us find long term rentals. 

According to the Indianapolis Star, the site will track property values, crime, poverty and vacancy rates and allow you to compare neighborhoods on this data.

When in fact there is more people that think they want or need to do this than there are deals in most markets.. and that's buy a long shot.... there are only so many FSBO's out there the rest of real estate is transacted in the RE INDUSTRY by licensed individuals who do this for a living and a career.So if people want in the industry get in the industry.... if you want to buy and sell real estate then get your money together and go forth and do that.. but to do it with no money no credit and just trying to sucker people into crappy deals I see NO honor in that.. and I see it as a huge time suck and failure for the vast majority of people who are influenced by this romantic notion that this is the way to make big money.Sure some do it NO doubt.. but then again some become sports stars and some make it big in what ever business they choose.. the cream rises to the top.. but I submit the successful wholesaler who actually makes big money is far and few between and would succeed at almost any business the tried..

Once established you can then seek out other financial sources, partners etc.With $100K you have enough to begin and should not be reaching for the stars.
