Hi, @Luis Ortega one of my girls at the office, presented me that project, about 2 months ago is to close to the freeway, for my taste that becomes a problem in carlsbad, at a different price might make since cost of rehab into 15 units with time delays city of carlsbad is gonna give you is super long, if your using your own capital great but if not interest might eat you, Carlsbad Planning is easy to deal with but right now there is so many project applications they are a little overwhelm, I passed on it but maybe is more something in your area of expertise, i just taught it was a bit hard to pencil out. 

no because it's too risky for my personal tastes.

Pockets of blood can ruin the taste.

With that said, personal taste can be the kiss of death in investing - especially real estate investing.

The buyers may be able to work with her to make some changes to our fix-up (once I had a purchase agreement in place) so they could customize it to their taste.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/investigative/2013/09/08/left-with-nothing/I was vaguely interested in tax lien investing, but I have to say this story put a sour taste in my mouth.

My husband and I went back and forth on the duplex vs SFH when we were first buying, and went through all the pros and cons, too. 2 SFHs later we're planning to transition into a multi-family, now that we've gotten a taste for investing and cash flow, and are feeling a little more comfortable with being landlords.

It's possible it's my favorite drink in the world in terms of (taste + cost-value) combination!

In my area, that is a much smaller market with tastes that I don't feel comfortable trying to predict.

Do you intend on investing in real estate still, or has this experience left a bad taste in your mouth?
